Hannity Busted Again

Who do Hannity, Rush, O'Reilly et al hate more than libs, terrorists or gay marriage? Here's a hint: you won't find these people working for the Factor. The answer is of course: fact-checkers. Heard Hannity today drag out his tired old line about Ginsburg advocating twelve as the age of consent. Fortunately, Media Matters has long since debunked the smear: A 1974 report co-authored by Ginsburg did address the constitutionality of prohibitions on prostitution and did refer to legislation that set the age of consent at 12 years. But Ginsburg did not assert a position on either issue.. Won't stop them, of course. But it is sure fun to see the anger (especially from O'Reilly) when they're confronted by their nemesis - the unvarnished truth.
