Fox News posted a statement on its website saying its twitter account has been hacked called the tweets "malicious" and "false." It said the hacking is being investigated.
Hoaxers started posting messages such as;
“@BarackObama has just passed. The President is dead. A sad 4th of July, indeed. President Barack Obama is dead.”
“@BarackObama shot twice at Ross’ restuarant in Iowa while campaigning. RIP, Obama, best regards to the Obama family.”
“We wish @joebiden the best of luck as our new President of the United States. In such a time of madness there’s light at the end of the tunnel.”
The Secret Service said it would investigate the hacking of Fox's Twitter account over the false updates.
You can’t really trust what’s on Twitter!
