The next interview with that “Dog” guy was funny, too. He couldn’t hear Geraldo but we did get to see somebody’s hand fussing with his golden locks.

Geraldo’s coverage, while news was breaking (or not), was appropriate. However, to re-air this “breaking news” once the emergency had stopped was idiotic!
To viewers who had not noticed that the re-air did not have the “live” bug present, they would have thought the warning was still in effect. Why didn’t Fox go to their regular programming (Paul Gigot/WSJ or whatever it’s called, Fox News Live and Greg Gutfeld?) Why re-air this emergency stuff after the emergency had passed?

This isn’ the first time fox has done this. they have pulled this during hurricane coverage too. it’s audience though isn’t smart enough to know theyve already seen something.

Harry thinks you’re not smart enough to have seen that.
