Major Garrett of FauxNews links to porn website instead of excerpts of Obama's speech

:wow:

I apologize. Bit.ly turned my original link to SOTU excerpts to a soft-porn link. NOT my intention.

1. He's apparently catching heat for it too...

For those suckling snide syrup. I publicly acknowledged an innocent mistake and corrected it. If that's not good enuf, take a hike.

3. yeah it's all Bit's fault

I'm sure he didn't actually have that other link in his clipboard.

4. Gee how did he know the porn link...that's curious

does he go there so often he just automatically typed it in.

9. Oh yes, it's "auto-type" completion that can be selected as an option? ... too funny!

5. that's not the first time Faux has done that, either, right??

6. Trying to blame it on Bit.ly???????

Dude, the ONLY WAY Bit.ly would give you a link to a porn site is if you had put in the URL to the porn site.

and it's not really a pron site, it's more of a site for procuring "escorts".

7. My only response to this is

:rofl:

8. If I ran Bit.ly I would sue his ass

That kind of thing can ruin a company's reputation and I don't believe for a second that the URL shortening service mangled his link. We're not talking about the generator turning whitehouse dot com into whitehouse dot org. That site Garret linked to is named forwant dot com.

10. Major Major Major. Never Tweet with one hand.

I'm sure the President would be flattered that his voice does it for you.
