EMBED

SUMMARY: On Fox & Friends, host Brian Kilmeade advanced Andrew Breitbart's dubious allegations against ACORN by reporting that a "private investigator" saw the group "dumping thousands of sensitive documents into the trash outside their San Diego office ... after California's attorney general launched an investigation into the group." But Breitbart, who hyped the document dump as a "scandal" on his website, BigGovernment.com, and asserted that the documents are "very vital to that investigation," has not shown that the discarded documents are in fact vital to the investigation or related to the reported scope of the investigation.
