If your hobby over the past twenty years was to record news stories as they aired, you tend to have some really curious things in your library. On Oct. 2, 2001, almost a month after Sept. 11, this little faux pas was aired on Fox News. Richard Butler, the former UN inspector appeared on Rita Cosby's show which came on after Hannity and Colmes at the time. Some poor Fox News graphic designer found a picture of Richard Butler to use in a quick blurb...and that brings us to the goof. It is not known if they ever acknowledged or apologized for this, but after all the things Fox News has done since, it's hard to feel sorry for them.
