What said? Who Said? Not Said!

What fun!

Little Green Footballs and Jeff Bercovici  in Portfolio.com reports:

The Huffington Post retraction:

“We regret the error and apologize to Mr. Gibson. John Gibson never compared Eric Holder to a monkey with a bright blue scrotum.” .

In their apology and retraction, they  say that a video it posted had been doctored; source unknown. The hoax had Trace Gallagher’s voice saying “bright blue scrotum” where  “nation of cowards”, a remark by Holder, belonged.

Great journalism, Guys!
