The NPR Sting's "Racist Tea Party" Comment Was Taken Out of Context
Posted Friday, March 11, 2011 6:56 PM | By David Weigel

Glenn Beck's website The Blaze analyzes and partly debunks the NPR sting. The fourth point is enough to make me regret credulously writing that Schiller was "musing" about his opinion of Tea Partiers when he discussed how extreme they seemed to be.

The tape released on Tuesday morning gave us this conversation, which starts after a visible (i.e., not concealed) edit.

1. I stop listening to/supporting NPR around the 2000 coup

Like much of the media at the time, they seemed to be going out of their way to kiss Bush's ass.
