Hannity Tweets Apology for Sharing False Report on Michelle Obama Deleting Clinton Tweets
Source: Mediaite
Sean Hannity has recently started to indulge more in what one might call tabloid conspiracies, but today he did apologize after sharing one.
See, Hannity keeps up with the site The Gateway Pundit, and one of the posts up earlier today was titled Rats Jump Ship=> Michelle Obama Did Scrubs Hillary Clinton from Twitter History?
WOW WHAT A BOMBSHELL except for the fact that this didnt happen.
What was the evidence of this? That @MichelleObama apparently hasnt tweeted anything since early 2013. The only problem here is that the main Twitter account the FLOTUS uses is, well, @FLOTUS.

Lumpy is such a gullible douche.
Naturally, he only tweets the correction. He won't go on air and tell his audience of computer-challenged, frightened, elderly boomers that he screwed up.

(70,186 posts)Shilvo (?spelling) was staying. Remember the woman who was brain dead and the husband wanted her off the respirator-but her parents objected. Jeb Bush sided with the parents also. Anyway, I recall him and his fox news gang parked at the bottom of the hospice. The whole scene was so sad and disgusting.

(35,699 posts)But he tweeted after his show, "Correction. Live on radio I read a gateway pundit report that @MichelleObama had deleted mentions of HRC. And a listener said BHO and. Elizabeth Warren did same. Fact is they didn't. I humbly apologize. Live radio."
Then he emailed CNNMoney this explanation: "I received an e-mail LIVE ON THE AIR that linked a Gateway Pundit article. I questioned the accuracy of it on the air. I asked my producer on the air if it was true. She said it was. I also received a listener IM saying that they saw the same. Then THE listener mentioned that there was a report about the other 2."
Hannity continued: "Bottom line it was brought up in an insignificant way, I was dealing with more important issues like HRC crimes and lies and how CNN has been colluding with the Clinton campaign and CHEATING Bernie Sanders."
In other words, if it is about Clinton, any screw up I make is nothing in comparison.
