Fox News
AFT president Randi Weingarten admitted to retweeting a false list of "banned" books on Sunday but reiterated that "book bans are very real & dangerous."
Hanna Panreck is an associate editor at Fox News.
The list, posted by an account called "Freesus Patriot," claimed that Florida has banned books such as, "To Kill a Mockingbird," and "A Wrinkle in Time." The account also tweeted that they would not reveal the source of the list.
"I'm not going to say where this list came from due to protecting sources but if this list is wrong then I invite @RonDeSantisFL to publicly state the books on this list will not be banned in Florida schools & he intends to protect student's rights. I will take it down if he does," the account tweeted.
