An "editing mistake." Uh huh. It only became a mistake once they were called out for it.

Because if the media isn’t 100% perfect 100% of the time you think it’s a conspiracy.

Find me a mistake that doesn't err on the side of either making Democrats look good, Republicans look bad, or emergencies look worse, and you might have a point. Otherwise, considering that virtually every single "mistake" I've seen the mainstream media make in recent times falls into one of those categories, in my mind it is a result of bias (and if you want to argue that the same is true of Fox News on the other side of the coin, that's fine).
