Getting well-known African Americans mixed up is always a problem, especially if you’re speaking to millions. Fox News and its Laura Ingraham have had a long history of foibles and mixups, and this week was no different. But it was Ingraham’s attempt at cleaning up her mistake that turned out to be … well awkward.  

Last week, during a segment of “The Ingraham Angle,” the host was on rant, criticizing officials, district attorneys, and judges who have participated in legal proceedings against President-elect Donald Trump, specifically calling out Jack Smith, Alvin Bragg, and Fani Willis.

As pictures of the officials were being shown, Ingraham stated, “History is going to remember Jack Smith and Alvin Bragg, Fani Willis and the judges who let these cases get as far as they did as modern-day Keystone Cops, who chased Trump around, hounding him, trying to keep him off the campaign trail because they hated his agenda.”

The one problem, the Black woman that showed up on people’s screens was not Willis, it was Letitia James, the attorney general of New York who filed a civil lawsuit against Trump and even threatened to seize some of the billionaire’s New York skyscrapers.

Shortly afterward, Ingraham attempted to explain the show’s mistake and apologize for it. But it came across as half-hearted, as she quickly took shots at both Willis and James.

“We accidentally showed a graphic that had a photo of another vicious anti-Trump figure, Letitia James when we were talking about Fani Willis,’’ she said, but then added. “ So that was our mistake. But they both hate Trump.”

We could so never forget what she said about LeBron James when she told him to infamously “shut up and dribble” when the NBA star had criticism of Trump in 2019.
