From the September 8 edition of Fox New's Special Report with Bret Baier:

HOWARD KURTZ: In the wake of last night's forum, Trump's son, Donald Jr., caused a stir by tweeting a link to a site that specializes in conspiracy theories asking, “was Hillary wearing an ear piece during last night's presidential forum?” There's zero evidence of that. Just as there was nothing to support the chatter that George W. Bush had hidden some kind of device during a 2004 debate.
