Fox News apologizes for airing wrong clip of Donald Trump: ‘They didn’t want Trump wearing hat’

Fox News has apologized for airing an incorrect clip as President Donald Trump commemorated six U.S. service members killed in Iran. Fellow presenter Griff Jenkins, who was on the show when the erroneous clip aired, issued an apology and said: “We would like to acknowledge a mistake we made earlier on our show. In the course of our coverage of yesterday’s Transfer of Dignity, we inadvertently played a video of the old Transfer of Dignity instead of the ceremony that took place yesterday. We deeply regret this incident and extend our highest respect and condolences to the families of the military personnel. We honor the sacrifice of those six American heroes. “But critics said it was not an honest mistake but a deliberate attempt to not show Trump wearing a campaign hat. “This was an ‘apology’ from Fox. They claimed it was ‘unintentional’ — a lie. They showed the old footage because they didn’t want Trump wearing a campaign hat during the ceremony. And then in this statement, they still didn’t show the correct footage of Trump,” Ron Filipkoski wrote. “If any other network did this, it would be a huge scandal, Fox would unleash a chorus of criticism and false outrage, and people would lose their jobs. But not Fox. It’s not a news network. It’s a state propaganda channel,” Mehdi Hassan posted. “President Trump, First Lady Melania Trump, Vice President J.D. Vance and [Second] Ms. Usha Vance attended the solemn transfer ceremony to commemorate the final return home of the six American service members killed in Kuwait. The remains of fallen soldiers were returned with solemn ceremony. This is considered one of the most serious duties of the Commander-in-Chief. ” Trump wore the hat during a solemn ceremony honoring Maj. Jeffrey O’Brien, Chief Warrant Officer 3 Robert Mazen, Capt. Cody Hoke, Sgt. 1st Class Nicole Armor, Sgt. 1st Class Noah Titkins and Sgt. Declan Cody. But Fox aired an older video in which Trump was not wearing a hat.
