Fox News accidentally showed a graphic suggesting Ruth Bader Ginsburg is dead. It was an accident, Steve Doocy announced on Fox & Friends. Like most stations, these things are prepared ahead of time. They should keep it on hold in any case.
The media thought this was newsworthy and seem to want Fox bashed, and it worked. They are being bashed. The mob wants the poor tech who accidentally put it up fired.
7:54 AM ET @foxandfriends Prematurely Announces Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s Death
This is not a “technical error.” This is a stored @FoxNews animated graphic inadvertently queued up for broadcast.

Naturally, the left doesn’t believe Fox did it accidentally, and they couldn’t wait to call it fake news.
#FoxNews reported this morning the death of Justice Ginsburg. Then retracted it. “Oops, another mistake.” Sounds like ghoulish wish fulfillment to me. https://t.co/J2lrmgZsdr

It doesn’t happen often, but the left wants you to think it does.
This is the sort of “control room error” that happens at #FoxNews with some regularity. Is somebody going to get fired for it? https://t.co/J2lrmgZsdr
