I'm sure I can splice up some nice footage of you to make you look like anything I wanted. lol
And if I had the money and connections to get it on Sean Hannity... the right wing cool-aide drinkers would believe it. LOL
Here's the deal. I worked for Lexis Nexis and supported congressional information systems. This kind of thing is exactly what another poster pointed out... trash. Here's how the right wing media works. Let's say an interest group puts together a video like this that slanders a politician they don't like. They send this to someone like Hannity. Hannity airs it in the name of "Is Obama a Muslim?". He airs their video, interviews their spokes person, and in the end... it's on them rather it's true or not. Hannity was just "reporting" on their accusation. He doesn't owe a retraction because it wasn't his piece. It wasn't billed as fact so he doesn't have to verify sources. And if it's refuted he's not obligated to tell you.
