C-SPAN has suspended host and political editor Steve Scully — who had been booked to moderate the now-scrapped second presidential debate — after he falsely claimed his Twitter account had been hacked.

Scully informed C-SPAN and the Presidential Commission on Debates late Wednesday that he had lied when he claimed a mysterious tweet that appeared on his feed was the result of a hack, C-SPAN said in a statement.
