Cold Day In Hell: Fox News' Sean Hannity Apologizes To Jon Stewart

Fox News' Sean Hannity responded to Jon Stewart Wednesday evening after the Daily Show host called out the network for using old footage from a larger September 12, 2009 "Tea Party' protest to illustrate a much smaller health care rally on Capitol Hill last week.

Speaking directly to the camera, Hannity said that it pained him to admit it, but Stewart was correct.

    Thats it blame it on editing. I just love faux news almost as much as bugs and daffy

    Obermann, the Daily Show and others been pointing out Fox Noise lies for years now, wonder why they are owning up to this one.

    Nixon for the first time since he's been there has to put on a jacket. I'm a bit shocked that they admitted their "mistake," but I don't believe them for one millisecond. They do this kind of sh*t all the time. They just got caught. Actually, they've gotten caught before, they just never apologized. So times they are a changin'

  •  

    This is not news even.

    Give me break Sean you knew what was going on. By the way you have never carried out your pledge to be Water Boarded. All talk no action.

    LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!

    What he really should have said was "We are sorry we got caught and we will be sure to be a little more inventive and sneaky in the future."

    Wonder y Daily Show did not jump on this.

    BTW that was a EXTREMELY insincere apology.
    he had his tongue in his cheek the whole time.

  •  

    Wow, what a twat. That wasn't even close to an apology. Trying to cover his ass and blame "editing"? And call it a "mistake"? Faux news should not be able to call itself a "news station", that was a very black and white example of propaganda and misinformation. Is that even legal?

    I don't understand why he is smiling. it's so unprofessional... oh wait this is not news, it's Fox News! phew!

  •  

    What crap. An apology would include telling their viewers what happened and why it happened and their original intention, and it wouldn't have taken something like Jon to bring it out, and that would not have been the main focus if there was anything honest being said. Total utter in-your-face crap.

    Fox News announced its new tag line today: "Fox News. Spiraling out of control!"

    Hannity apologizes to a self admitted fake news guy.
    Well Sean is a better man in a minute than the collection of legacy (CNN, MSNBC, NPR, ABC,NBC,CBS) losers are in a year.

    brushing it off as insignificant makes jon stewart look nit picky to fox viewers. hannity knows his viewers will defend anything he says.

    kudos for this world changing play of events, but....

    is this what our media has boiled down to? partisan bickering and fact checking?

    Kids we're all the proletariat we should be using our media to challenge the system. The msnbc vs fox vs whatever is nothing more than divisive politics that doesn't help the fact that we need information for citizens, not just liberals, repubs, ninjas, but for everyone. We don't need a more "fair and balanced" news channel, as if the news is some kind of product, we just need real news. Where's our BBC (pbs is beggar station, not the same at all). A long time ago a coal miner from Mississippi and a gay (not openly) liberal from new york would've fought for the same interest, joined the same unions, protested the same labor conditions, and wait for guys like woodward to deliver the news in the evening... wtf happened to our society?
