Faux "News's" Happening Now co-whore Jon Scott attempts to passes off GOP press release as its own research -- typo and all.
However, all of the sources and cost figures Scott cited, as well as the accompanying on-screen text, were also contained in a February 10 press release issued by the Senate Republican Communications Center.http://mediamatters.org/items/200902100019
One on-screen graphic during the segment even repeated a typo from the GOP document, further confirming that Scott was simply reading from a Republican press release. The Fox News graphic and the GOP press release both claimed that a Wall Street Journal report that the stimulus package could reach "$775 billion over two years" was published on December 19, 2009.

Bitch Hannity falsely identified "Frisbee golf course" as an earmark in recovery bill.
In fact, there is no earmark for "a Frisbee golf course" in either the House or Senate version of the recovery bill, which both specifically prohibit using funds in the bill for a "golf course." The Senate version also prohibits using funds for a "community park."http://mediamatters.org/items/200902100012
