Nice going Hannity. Conservatives aren’t allowed to make mistakes, just like Christians aren’t allowed to ever commit a sin. Because the godless will jump all over both and never forget it.

FOX’s Sean Hannity To Daily Show’s Jon Stewart “You Were Right”

Good on Sean! I guess this is one way to get the MSM to show footage of the 9/12 crowd.

all news channel do this all the time. Most time, its not an intent to mislead, but due to laziness. They just want a clip to show the event and they just grab one close to it. How many times have we seen iraq war footages where the media is talking about an incident but show war clips of ppl breaking down doors thats totally different and unrelated.

My point was that if Beck or Hannity “out” some Admin or Celeb they are dimissed.
YET Stewart attempts to “out” Hannity as what? dishonest, and gets a newspaper column written .
This was an attempt to marginalize Hannity.
I didn’t see the so called “ruse” but I’m sure Hannity will take care of the issue.

I think that is likely the work of some intern, and is not the first glaring mistake I’ve seen on Fox (witness some of the dreadful spelling errors in the bottom screen scrawl).
They need to start considering some factors other than blondeness and cup size when choosing their interns.

Jon Stewart points out in the video clip below Hannity was actually showing footage of the 9-12 Tea Party protest and trying to pass it off as footage of the Bachmann event

But how could that be? The SRM told us no one showed up at the 9-12 Tea Party!

I'm so confused.

Who cares how many people were there.

The people who would normally attend these events HAVE TO WORK for a living!!!

OR it could have been one of the NYC mindset staffers who put it in and then “leaked” it.

C’mon guys, Stewart is an admitted Fake News Guy. Why would you give anything he says credibility?

"...for Sarah's book tour next week."

I will be praying for her safety over the next few years.

She is one of the very few people on this planet that is capable of defeating Obama in 2012.

The democrats know that Sarah can beat Obama in 2012, and I fear that one of them may try to murder her and make it look like an accident or something.

Please be safe and extremely careful, Sarah.

My prayers are with you and your family.

Always.

Jon Leibowitz, or whatever the hell his name is, spends his time having "gotcha" moments with Conservatives.

Okay, fine.

How about that little sh!tstain try a little research on the communist losers at ABCNYTNPRCNNMSNBCNBC sometime?

Did he have a good laugh at that idiot Wolf Blitzer when he disgraced himself and CNN on Jeopardy?

Did he have a good laugh when that CNN witch Roesgen was forcefully shouting on behalf of Obama at a Tea Party protester this past summer?

Oh yeah, that Leibowitz guy is such a class act.

He is an extremely strong reason why I hate most of the jerks in my entire generation.

Every single sarcastic, irresponsible, snide, arrogant, egocentric, idiotic, irreligious narcissist in my generation gravitates to Leibowitz's stupid show.

Hey Sean, liberals are watching you. And they have given you the PERFECT opportunity to correct the so called record. Show them how many showed up on 9/12 and then side by side it with what followed.

Let them know what happened and you are so pleased to take the opportunity to set the record straight. And make sure you dedicate this to Jon Stewart for bringing said confusion to your attention.

The producers put those things together for airing and most of the time the show’s host only sees them when the viewers do.

Just like Mary Mapes did for Dan Rather?

Yeah — you can tell who values the truth, and who values nothing but partisan hackery.
