"TRUMP CUTS U.S. AID TO 3 MEXICAN COUNTRIES" read the banner on "Fox & Friends Weekend" right after the show started at 6 a.m. on Sunday. The laughs at Fox's expense lasted all day. But there wasn't just laughter — there was serious criticism as well. Some of Fox's detractors said the error was emblematic of ignorance, and worse, on the network's right-wing talk shows. They pointed out that President Donald Trump treats the show as an informal intelligence briefing.

:lol:

Heck, if Faux News offered me $1 per mistake to correct all of their mistakes before they go on the air, I'd go to work for them.

Job security is very important these days.

You'd make twice as much doing that for CNN.

Even more for Trump's speeches. Cripes, I could retire for three lifetimes on the income from correcting just one of Trump's speeches!
