I guess if you wish for something hard enough and long enough you just might see your dreams come true.... some day.
Technical error?
Do they think everyone is as stupid as the people who watch that show - including Trump?

Virtually all media outlets have prepackaged segments ready for the death of high ranking government officials of advanced age.
The BBC keeps black suits and armbands just behind the studio for anchors to be ready to announce the Queen’s passing and premise segments ready for example, this has been reported on. So for any older government official there probably are title graphics and scripts ready
Fascinating. And the last time the BBC put up a picture of Queen Elizabeth with her year of birth and death was......when?

It doesn’t matter, it is absolutely possible for such an error to occur. I’ve seen local news stations put out election results that don’t exist because they were testing their system, misidentify guests, etc. I don’t even know to what end you would purposefully put up a premade title card for covering a death.

Oh, stop. It was a mistake. And Mediate explains how it happened:
So how did this package make air? Someone familiar with the details of the mistake tells Mediaite, “The graphics team incorrectly assigned the obit to a Nexio number that was designated for an existing Fox & Friends animation Trouble with Schools.” Nexio is a digital communications and technology platform that many television control rooms use to manage visual assets and graphics packages.
Mediaite’s source tells us “The Technical Director dialed up that existing number expecting it to be the Fox & Friends animation and when he triggered it, the wrong animation ran on air.”
So there you have it. This mistake was not the result of Fox & Friends opinion programming, nor was it some sort of wishful thinking as some on social media have unfairly claimed. It was a technical gaffe that landed on Fox News morning show, who handled the mistake as quickly and gracefully as one could expect. https://www.mediaite.com/tv/heres-h...uth-bader-ginsburg-with-an-ill-fated-graphic/
The last time you saw a major news network announce the death of someone famous without that person being dead was.....when?
And is Fox that backwards that they need to create the graphic with a name, a picture, and dates before she is even dead? I assume they have had to do this for every famous person. That must be a full time job.

Im sure it was a technical error as there no upside for them to have done it on purpose. But haven’t they had a lot of those types of technical errors over the years?
For the ones who are 85? Uh.... yeah they have these things called producers

I can't remember the last time they put up a graphic used to announce someone's death prior to that person dying. Not even them.
A technical error doesn't usually involve someone making a death graphic. It's usually a feed gone wrong, a prompter showing one too many zeros, or something else. This wasn't a technical error. This was just stupid or creepy.
yup - just a technical glitch ... nothing to see here .... move along, move along......

Cued up and ready to go.
This isn't too far fetched.
That is very true. Writing obituaries in advance for celebrities is standard procedure at newspapers.

No wonder Fox and Friends has an audience.
