CBS News admitted to a "mistake" on Monday after airing footage of an overcrowded hospital room that was allegedly in New York City but was actually from a hospital in Italy.

"It was an editing mistake. We took immediate steps to remove it from all platforms and shows," a CBS News spokesperson told Fox News.

Last Wednesday, "CBS This Morning" included a brief clip showing several patients and medical professionals in one room during a report about the rising threat of the coronavirus outbreak in New York City.

I’m sure if they didn’t get caught, they would have let everyone know they made a mistake, right?

There was a time when they might have got away with it. But people are on to them now.

Just a silly little boo-boo that accidentally advances our political agenda! We promise to never do anything like that again! No, really! You believe us, don’t you?

Never a “mistake” in his favor.

Funny how the MSM’s many “mistakes “ always err toward being anti-Trump.

“Mistake’’?. In a pigs eye.

Are these the same ass hats 🎩 that said Epstein committed suicide, or the guy in Northern California too?

Everyone in charge of ANY entity who is a liberal is trying to prolong the economic pain in order to damage Trump politically. It is obvious.

At least, at one time, CBS was the go to channel for entertainment. We recorded SO MANY shows, which are now gone. The only ones we watch now are Hawaii 50 and Blue Bloods, and 50 is going.

SO ONLY BLUE BLOODS AND WHEN THAT GOES TOO FAR WITH THE POLITICALLY CORRECT...IT’S BYE, BYE TV.

Some of these people are the least internet-savvy people I’ve ever encountered. But in fact, there’s an element of “get the lie out there first, deal with the rest later” that they’ve brought over from the print media. Doesn’t work that way anymore.//

Yep you nailed it. I do wonder if there are some young people in the news room who realize the stupidity - even if they’re liberal art majors.

Bull$hit! These are the same people who showed riots from other cities during the coverage of Emmanuel Church shooting in an effort to stoke tensions in Charleston, SC.
