When Video Graphics Go Wrong...

As someone who toiled at the graphics machine for many years in TV, I highly sympathize with whoever did this. Although this one makes me suspicious, because it's far more than just a typo. 

Whatever the explanation, it appeared on a Fox News story about the website TikTok shutting down (albeit temporarily as it turned out) in the U.S. 

It was only up for a few seconds before someone in the control room noticed and fixed it, but it certainly was an unfortunate unforced error!

Titkok is actually a far more accurate name for the platform given a lot of its content.
