Via Ace of Spades HQ – Charles Johnson Now So Anti-Racist He’s Denouncing Fake Racist Quotes

How far the mighty have fallen.

Little Green Footballs was once the bastion of American blogging. It took to task crazed Jihadists, debunked phony stories in the media and even helped end the career of Dan Rather by demonstrating he ran a story with phony documents.

Now, it is Charles Johnson who used the phony documents, and right on the pages of Little Green Footballs.

Charles cited the Casey Gane-McCalla list of Top Ten Racist Rush Limbaugh Quotes which are made up or taken way out of context.

Eight of the ten “quotes” are either false or grossly misrepresented. The real “racist” quotes in the list? The Donovan McNabb fiasco and Limbaugh’s “attacks” on President Obama, a formula subscribed to by Janeane Garofalo.

Charles was called out and he has squealed on his site:

• There will be no retraction. The quote is disputed, but it has not been proven false. And there are plenty of other racist quotes that you seem to be just gliding right past that are NOT disputed.

.

Well Charles, it has been proven false for years now. Here is a breakdown of the quotes creation and I have even included pictures so Charles can follow along.

LGF has fallen into the “it’s the truthiness of the story” trap.

Hopefully, liberals will stop using made up quotes to spearhead book sales and web traffic, but they don’t seem to care so far.

UPDATE: Michelle Malkin comments on the Quote Truthers.
