Heather Childers, a “straight news” anchor for the Fox News weekend program America’s News Headquarters and co-host of Fox & Friends First, tweeted this afternoon: “Thoughts? Did Obama Campaign Threaten Chelsea Clinton’s Life 2 Keep Parents Silent?” and linked to a blog post pushing a conspiracy involving the Obama campaign murdering, or threatening to murder, individuals to keep quiet questions about Obama’s eligibility. – Media Matters
It’s all the Clintons’ fault, according to Fox News anchor Heather Childers and her now infamous birther tweets.

Well, she didn’t exactly say that, but what Heather Childers did was link to a notorious birther site article that pushed the boundaries of birtherism, accusing the ’08 Obama campaign of threatening murder, after committing one to keep everything on the hush-hush.
Godfatherpolitics.com has declared that President Obama’s birth certificate is a “fraud.” Recent posts on the subject include: “World Media Picking Up Obama Birth Certificate Fraud While America’s Media Remains Silent”; “Mr. President – Put Up or Shut Up!”; and “Alabama Supreme Court Justice Says Barack Obama Birth Certificate Would Not Stand Up in Court.” – Media Matters (links for posts available at the link)
And guess who was next on the list? Former Pres. Bill Clinton, with Democratic insiders all knowing the dirty details of the origins of birtherism.
The headline to the post Childers linked to: “Did Barack Obama Campaign Threaten Life of Chelsea Clinton to Keep Parents Silent on Obama’s Ineligibility?”
This broad would make a perfect co-host for Sean Hannity.
Mediaite reached out for a statement from FNC and got one:
“The tweets have been addressed with Heather and she understands this was a mistake.” – Michael Clemente, Fox News senior vice president for news
The news division of Fox News has lower standards than Donald Trump’s Miss Universe Pageant.
An intelligent blonde woman who is not a liberal must have sounded the alarms over at media matters. So a lady in a contest thinks marriage is a union between a man and a woman,. Is that offensive? This story is just another routine smear on women that liberals do to people who do not think they way liberals insist they must.
What the heck are you talking about? This idiot tweeted a link to a conspiracy theory. I would say the same thing if it was a man doing it. Just goes to show that dumb and dumber rule at Fox News.
The tweets have been addressed with Heather and she understands this was a mistake.” – Michael Clemente, Fox News senior vice president for news
I think the issue was handled properly. I did not read Media Matters response to NBC for outright distorions. It is because they are liberal and therefore can say whatever they want without scrutiny from liberalista agenda enforcers like Media Matters. Conservatives have higher standards to live up to and we are all the better for it.
“I think the issue was handled properly.”-mjsmith
If it was truly handled properly she would be put on temporary suspicion for promoting a dangerous and disgusting lie. She is suppose to be a news anchor on a network that claims to be “Fair and Balance.”
Correction “suspension” not suspicion.
mjsmith …I am confused by your post. An intelligent person would not link a bizarre conspiracy article to their twitter feed. Are we to really believe Obama some how also threaten then President George Bush Jr. and FBI into allowing him to govern the most powerful nation?
So, let’s see Obama somehow out smarted the FBI into falling for his fake birth certificate. Yet, he you people claim his not smart enough to be President of the United States….Yeah, ok!
1.”An intelligent blonde woman who is not a liberal must have sounded the alarms over at media matters.”
