The correction fails to air the real footage or inform viewers what was different about it. It claims the error was inadvertent and pretends to honor the fallen service members, but at the end of the day Fox still doesn’t show or describe how they came home to spare Trump from its viewers’ scrutiny.

Screenshot of an X post from the Governor Hochul Press Office sarcastically referencing Kash Patel’s weekend visit, quote-tweeting a Pop Crave post about a luxury cottage from “Heated Rivalry” being listed on Airbnb. The embedded images show a modern, glass-heavy cabin exterior and interior rooms with wood finishes, large windows, and a contemporary bathroom.

Please don't let him spoil our memory of the Cottage.
