The Fox title is genuine. They’re trying to pass it off as a typo. The thing is, those typos are (a) surprisingly numerous, happening on a regular basis, calling into question the network’s and their affiliates’ editorial acumen, if true; and (b) are, by sheer coincidence apparently almost always in error in a way that slaps Democrats. For example, when a Republican politician is caught in a dreadful scandal, his “R” designation is “accidentally” shown as a “D”–but never the other way around. Obama is always transposed with Obama, but “Boehner” is never spelled as “Bohner” or other variation which would be insulting to him.

This is not to say that Fox never has actual typos. As they went to lengths to point out, other networks made similar flubs. And sometimes, Fox title slips (like the “Shibuya Eggman” nuclear reactor, or Iraq being identified as “Egypt” on a Fox map) are clearly a result of people in the networks being careless idiots. It’s just that Fox’s “typos” are so regular, and so consistently anti-liberal, that they have lost the privilege of having the benefit of the doubt, especially when the “typo” says something bad or insulting about liberals or moderates. However, it’s not such a great thing for them to have to say, “we’re not petty, we’re just stupid.”

As for the anchor who said “President Obama is dead,” I believe that was indeed an accident–look at his co-anchor’s expression as he says it–but nonetheless may have also been a slip more Freudian than anything else.
