The Rachel Maddow Comedy Show: How many Oxford Dons do you have to blow to get a PhD when you can't read? 

Around 9 pm during her Iowa Caucus coverage, sharpie researcher Rachel Maddow announced that two term New Mexico Governor Gary Johnson, who had dropped out of the Republican primaries to seek the Libertarian Party nomination, was now dropping out of the Libertarian race to endorse Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul.

Problem was, it was not true.  She retracted the story on air a few hours later.

Maddow has a history of sloppy factual errors.  During Glenn Beck's march on Washington she attacked a tea party blogger who wrote a guide to DC for out-of-towners, as being a racist from deepest whitest Maine.  Because she read his blog reposted on a Maine blog.  He was a 30 year long resident of DC.

Good thing no one watches her show and depends on her for information.
