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.

Re: When Video Graphics Go Wrong...
In going over the posts from 2025 for a coming year-ender (it pays to start early!) I came across this thread.
It highlights a ridiculous graphics mistake and it's great, but I think this is my favourite one of the entire year. I have no idea how this could have happened but it did. And it's a classic. That must have been some message on X!
