WHAT'S TRUE: Maher maintained the joint (or blunt) was real.

WHAT'S FALSE: Maher was fined by the FCC.

(snip)

Social media users wondered whether Maher (who immediately began coughing before passing the joint to rapper and guest Killer Mike) legitimately smoked pot during his show. Maher addressed the questions via his Twitter account, stating that a 2010 segment involving Zach Galifianakis was staged, but this was legitimate:

Yup, that was real last night. And, I think, a first. (Zach's was fake but he paved the way!) America, fuck yeah!
