Faux News pulls this shit all the time. Then their credulous dupes blindly repeat it without applying a second of critical thought.
Last month, Hannity had 3 couples on to tell their "Obamacare Horror Stories."
Afterwards, a reporter reached out to them and..
- Turns out, not a single one of them had even visited their exchange. (shocker, I know)
- The business owner who allegedly cut staff because of OCare: 1) OCare doesn't apply to his business because he has fewer than 50 employees. 2) When asked "were those cuts due to OCare?", he replied with the classic "I'll call ya back"
- For the other 2 low-information couples, he found comparable replacement policies on their exchanges that would be 60% lower than their current rates.
- And there's more!
The full fact-check here.
ps. I know by putting the word "fact-check" in there, that certain credulous dupes will avoid reading the article. Wouldn't want to have their little reality-bubbles disturbed by pesky facts
