An Arkansas television station has retracted its hard-to-believe Wednesday night report that the state — the home state of newly-crowned American Idol winner Kris Allen — had cast “about 38 million” of the home viewer votes that were cast after American Idol’s final performance show on Tuesday night.

“AT&T is denying that 38 million votes came in from Arkansas,” Fox’s KLRT-TV affiliate in Little Rock, Arkansas reported in an revised report late Thursday morning. “They are not sure where that number originated from.”

Okay, scrap all the conspiracy theories from last night. I blame Billy Bush for using Twitter. LOL

Thank you for saving Kris Allen! #goteam!
