The emulator is already rooted, in the sense the adb runs as root, which is all you should need for development purposes. If you want to play with so-called "root apps" ie those which use a hacked "su" as a shim to launch root helpers, then you will need to install such, as described at the duplicate question. – Chris Stratton Mar 07 '14 at 15:30

The emulator is indeed normally already rooted, but it's not clear what claim you believe to be "wrong" – Chris Stratton Mar 07 '14 at 15:28
