"Controversy Surrounding Vigilante Group's Misidentification and Beatdown"

Fox News host Sean Hannity addressed the live broadcast incident where a vigilante group beat up a man, admitting that the initial claims made by Curtis Sliwa about the man being a migrant shoplifter were untrue. Sliwa, leader of the Guardian Angels, falsely accused the man of shoplifting and being a migrant during an interview with Hannity, but the New York Police Department revealed that the man was a Bronx resident who had not been shoplifting. Hannity later clarified the situation on his show, acknowledging the misinformation and emphasizing the importance of setting the record straight. The incident has sparked criticism of right-wing rhetoric and its role in inciting anti-immigrant sentiments.
