People who claim that the "real issue" with Shirley Sherrod tapes were the people in the audience?

When the audience roared with approval, applause, and amens when Shirley said that it was not about white and black, it was about haves and haves not, was that the "racist" part or should we ignore it because it doesn't fit the agenda Brietbart wants to push? Is that why he cut it out of his version of events?
