Shame on Fox for their knee jerk reaction. This is just one reason why 'breaking news' is not reliable anymore and hasn't been for a very long time. Trying to 'break' a story before competitors degrades journalistic integrity just as much as disinformation and misinformation. They seemed to be more concerned with pointing out a failure of the Biden administration than facts and that provides fodder for the left and makes Fox look foolish.

I don't care who puts a story out first as long as they are publishing the facts to the best of their research ability. A lot can change during the course of a 'breaking news' story as more facts come out and that's understandable, but putting info out just to be the first or to serve as click bait is disingenuous.

I also think this applies to Trump.  He needs to rein in his posts and stop his knee jerk reactions.  You can be critical of Biden, but his response to this was spot on, something along the lines of....I have spoken all of the agencies and will have more to say later.
