As the old (almost certainly misattributed) Mark Twain saying goes, “A lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth puts on its shoes.”
Fox News knows that even in the rare cases they are pressured into issuing a “clarification” for their lies the only part that really matters is that they were able to get the narrative out there in the first place.

I smell a lawsuit.
Same here, no doubt followed by a quick settlement. That tweet isn’t gonna save Kilmeade or Faux.

See, it’s OKAY to intentionally (or, “unintentionally”, by incompetence/negligence) defame someone on a broadcast— as long as you follow-up with a clarifying Tweet after the fact seen by < 0.1% of the viewers of the original defamatory statement.
