BREAKING: @FOXNashville retracts report accusing @JohnCooper4Nash of a cover-up in reporting #COVID19 numbers for Nashville bars. "We don't have evidence of a cover-up and apologize for the error." This after @DonaldJTrumpJr and @TuckerCarlson made the story go viral.
Now, when you go to the original story online, this is what you get:
And, people, STOP asking me: "what about the emails?" As I posted here repeatedly, they took them out of context. The story was clearly bogus. It is now time to admit it.
And please stop with the emails suggesting that I need to go to prison for not reporting the original story. 🙄
And now some people are mad at me for posting video of the retraction - because they wanted it to be true? #America2020
.@seanhannity, @IngrahamAngle and @MarshaBlackburn also magnified the story. Any comment?

WATCH: I never dreamed that all of this would happen as a result of my investigation of Millersville, Tennessee's #ConspiracyCop. Attempts to smear me or intimidate me only make me more determined to get to the truth. #StayTuned

In leaked texts shared earlier this month by the Southern Poverty Law Center between him and well-known Republican operative Roger Stone in 2020, Jones said “off record this is my site” in relation to National File. According to the texts, the site was explicitly funded by Jones’ father David Jones and was meant to give Jones’ son, Rex Jones, more public visibility. gizmodo.com/alex-jones-inf…

When I left Capitol Hill last night, there was an expectation on both sides of the aisle that there might be an amendment filed to HB1191 to give them that vote. 3/
