Yesterday afternoon, Fox News used footage from 2008 McCain-Palin rallies when talking about the “crowds” coming out to see Sarah Palin on her book tour, which started yesterday.
Today, they issued an on-air apology for the mistake.
“We mistakenly aired what’s called file tape of Sarah Palin. We didn’t mean to mislead anybody in that tease. It was a mistake, and for that we apologize,” said a host of Happening Now.
Watch after the jump.
Fox has been having a lot of such troubles lately. Last week, Sean Hannity apologized after using misleading footage during a segment about Rep. Michele Bachmann’s Capitol Hill tea party. Just today, they mistakenly showed the cover of a Palin satire called Going Rouge when talking about her actual memoir, Going Rogue.
