Sean Hanjob had to publicly admit on-air to using incorrect and misleading footage in his tea bagger story

The day after the Daily Show busted the Faux 'news' anchor attempting to inflate the apparent attendance for a recent D.C. tea bagger rally by using old footage from two months ago, Sean Hannity offered an "apology" of sorts on tonight's show.

Having no choice but to cop to it, Hannity admitted getting busted, though claims it was "an inadvertent mistake". How one can inadvertently go fetch footage from two months ago, and "inadvertently" edit it into a report on an event that took place earlier on the same day is not entirely clear.

He also failed to explain to his viewers the context in which the "incorrect video" actually was shown. Neither did he run Stewart's report from last night explaining clearly how Handjob had attempted to fool them. So, as usual, Handjob's viewers remain both in the dark and misinformed.
