MSNBC’s Awkward Graphics Error During Report on Death of Ex-Senator’s Husband

There’s been another rather unfortunate graphics flub on MSNBC, a week after a cringeworthy chyron on Ronan Farrow‘s show. Farrow reported on the death of Ray Hutchison, the husband of ex-senator Kay Bailey Hutchison, but the picture that accompanied the report was of the wrong Ray…

MSNBC accidentally aired a picture of the former Texas senator alongside ex-Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood.

Later on in the broadcast, Farrow corrected the error with a picture of the correct Ray.

You can watch the graphics error, followed by Farrow’s on-air correction, below, via MSNBC:
