Fox News isn't exactly known for being the best of friends with the Obama Administration but early this morning on the most patriotic holiday of the year they killed President Obama. Well... sorta.

According to FoxNews.com, their Twitter feed for political news, FoxNewspolitics, was hacked early this morning.

Hackers sent out several malicious and false tweets claiming that President Obama had been assassinated. Those reports are incorrect, of course, and the president is spending the July 4 holiday with his family at the White House. FoxNews.com alerted the U.S. Secret Service, which is declining public comment. Jeff Misenti, vice president and general manager of Fox News Digital, said FoxNews.com is working with Twitter to address the situation as quickly as possible.
