Beck, Hannity silent on O'Keefe's arrest

Although they repeatedly promoted ACORN videos made by filmmaker James O'Keefe on their shows and complained about the lack of media coverage of the videos, neither Glenn Beck nor Sean Hannity mentioned O'Keefe's arrest Monday for an alleged plot to interfere with* Sen. Mary Landrieu's phone. Fox News has reported on the story, but neither Beck nor Hannity had any comment on it.

*Correction: This post inaccurately stated that James O'Keefe was arrested in an alleged plot to wiretap Sen. Landrieu's office. The error was based on media reports (such as this one). The FBI affidavit actually alleged that O'Keefe and the others arrested were engaged in a plot to “interfer[e]” with Landrieu's telephone system. We regret the error.
