Fox Chyron Refers To Rep "Joke Sestak"
It's a new evolution in the continuing saga of Fox's error-ridden chyrons. This time, instead of referring to some scandal-plagued Republican as a Democrat, they referred to Senate hopeful Joe Sestak (D-PA) as "Rep. Joke Sestak"
In fairness to Fox, the "O" and the "K" keys are pretty close together on the QWERTY keyboard. But given Fox's track record, it's hard not to wonder whether this might've been another Freudian keyboard slip.

So you think they are doing this by mistake? Hah.
Deliberate misinformation is what Fox is all about.

Good for Joe. It means that his candidacy is seriously frightening enough to scare Focked News.

This is no error on Fox...this is done deliberately and has the finger prints of Roger Ailes all over it.....I have seen him in action (when Reagan was elected and throughout his transition) nothing is done in error unless Roger signs off on it....I have a sense that they are given carte blanche to do whatever petty, silly thing to embarrass any democrat...they will lie and say that is not so...the stories I could tell you about Ailes.

Gee, it's kind of "funny" that they keep making these types of alleged mistakes. Once or twice maybe, but over and over and over again. Of course they are doing it intentionally. Pathetic.

Ditto on the consensus that this was deliberate.
FWIW, the O and K keys are not adjacent either horizontally or vertically. I get O and P switched, and O and I switched, and K and L switched, but never K and O.
No accident.
