Sean Hannity not only lied about the number of people that attended a healthcare protest in the nation's capital, but even used false video footage to prove his claim. Michelle Bachmann was being interviewed by Hannity and claimed there were 25,000 to 40,000 people that showed up to the anti-healthcare reform rally.
