"Successful liftoff of Space Shuttle. They will be fixing the wiring on

Both statements are more-or-less true (well, sort of). They just
aren't related to each other except that they both refer to Shuttle
missions.

Still far short of the famous CNN blooper -- Columbia was traveling
twenty times the speed of light... Got it on 'screen save'.

Blatant factual errors are far short of single word gaffes?

I liked you a lot better when you weren't a Bush drone Jim. Now...not so much.

Different standards for friends and notsofriends. FOX news can make an
outrageous factual error, but it's not nearly so wrong as when the Communist
News Network screws up one word in a phrase which quite often contains either.
