Fox News (Literally) Tells its Viewers Day Is Night

While it's arguably not the first time Fox News has tried to tell its viewers day was night (or vice versa), in an apparent slip-up Friday morning on Fox & Friends, Ainsley Earhardt told her co-anchors to "have a great night" — at 7:45am.

"A great night!?!" exclaimed Steve Doocey, while meteorologist Janice Dean suggested it's 5:00 somewhere, and perhaps they should all just grab a drink. Doocy said it sounded like they already had. (Watch the clip below.)

With vote counting and wall-to-wall coverage of the election going on its fourth day, Earhardt and her colleagues can be forgiven for losing track of time. Other things? Perhaps not so much.
