Sean throws a desperate Hail Mary

Sean Hannity was forced to apologize after he read a totally false story about Michelle Obama and Hillary Clinton live on his radio broadcast:

Sean Hannity has apologized for reading a fake news story on air that claimed first lady Michelle Obama had scrubbed her Twitter account of mentions of Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.

The conservative radio talker and Fox News host also says one of his radio listeners called in to say President Barack Obama and Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren did the same. On Twitter Tuesday , Hannity said, “Fact is they didn’t. I humbly apologize. Live radio.”

Poor Sean. He probably wanted it to be true so bad. The fact-free story came from a site Snopes.com calls disreputable, noting they provided no evidence to back the claim. Better luck next time, Sean.
