Popular morning show 'Fox & Friends' aired two seconds of fake news for its viewers on Monday when producers showed a graphic announcing the death of SCOTUS Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
The live broadcast featured an obituary graphic reading, "Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg 1933-2019", just as the show resumed after a commercial break, Daily Mail reports.
A Fox News spokesperson described the mishap as "a technical error that emanated from the graphics team", with co-hosts Steve Doocy and Ainsley Earhardt apologizing within moments of the graphic being aired.
