it was the fart heard around the world, so to speak. Or at least live on MSNBC You can watch the viral video later on in this article. It’s been viewed millions of times.
Viewers heard someone… maybe Rep. Eric Swalwell, who had the misfortune of being on air at the time… let one rip, audibly, live, on the air. He says it wasn’t him. Some people think it was Chris Matthews. Or a sound guy. MSNBC is trying to get everyone to believe it was a coffee mug. What everyone seems to agree on, though, is that it sounded like a fart. Yes, it’s come to this.
The jokes flew. “I’ve analyzed the MSNBC fart video and I believe there was a second farter on the gassy knoll,” wrote one Twitter user. “trying to blame the obvious fart on a mug has severely undermined msnbc’s credibility imho,” wrote another. “I AM FARTACUS,” said another joking tweet.
Swalwell was appearing on MSNBC’s Hardball show. The show responded to the controversy, writing on Twitter, “Sorry to disappoint the conspiracy theorists – it was the #hardball mug scraping across the desk.
Get yours today and let’s get back to the news!”
