Headline: The Guardian, 3/7/2026
Robert Mackey reports:
At 6.18am ET, one of the hosts of Fox & Friends, the president’s favorite morning show, turned from a laugh-filled discussion of possible US action to topple the government of Cuba to solemnly say: “President Trump, first lady Melania Trump, Vice-President JD Vance, and secretary lady Usha Vance [sic], attending a dignified transfer to honor the final homecoming of the six US service members killed in Kuwait.” As the host spoke, Fox showed viewers video of Trump at the ceremony in December, with an on-screen label wrongly stating that it had been recorded on Saturday. The first lady, the vice-president and the second lady were not visible in the old video, since they did not attend the December event.
Over three hours later, the same host acknowledged on air “a mistake made earlier on our program: during our coverage of yesterday’s dignified transfer, we inadvertently aired video from an older dignified transfer instead of the ceremony that took place yesterday. We deeply regret the error.” [emphasis added]
