Fox & Friends has a spell-check ‘malufuction’

Once again, the spell check at Fox News was having some problems on Wednesday morning.

While Fox & Friends First host Ainsley Earhardt was reporting on a ride that malfunctioned at the Colorado State Fair, the graphics department had a glitch of their own.

Instead of “malfunction,” the chyron displayed under the Fox News host read, “Park Ride Malufuction.” Earhardt seemed to be thrown off for a moment, but managed to pronounce the word correctly.

Earlier this year, the same morning show misspelled “Spelling Bee” as “Spelling Be.”

Without it, messages would be incomprehensible and undecipherable, even full of errors.

Wait a minute, was this Fox News?

Never mind.
