Fox affiliate Q13 in Seattle, Washington has fired an employee that apparently doctored a video of President Donald Trump giving a speech in the Oval Office on Tuesday, The Hill reports.
MyNorthwest.com showed the doctored video side-by-side with CNN’s live broadcast of Trump’s address. It appears to show Trump, whose skin and hair were made to appear more orange, sticking his tongue out while giving an address on the ongoing partial government shutdown.
“This does not meet our editorial standards and we regret if it is seen as portraying the president in a negative light,” Q13 news director Erica Hill told the Seattle Times in a statement on Thursday.
“We’ve completed our investigation into this incident and determined that the actions were the result of an individual editor whose employment has been terminated," she said later that day.
