Fox News is a very profitable news organization, and so are the stars who appear on the network.

The conservative cable TV news network, based in New York City, was first created by Rupert Murdoch, and premiered in 1996.

Despite its many headline-making controversies, and being frequently called out for biased and misleading information, which it has denied amid public battles with former President Barack Obama, it has since grown to become the leading cable news subscription network.

Fox News anchor Sandra Smith is making headlines for what happened when she had a hot microphone during a broadcast and apparently did not realize she was on camera, too.

A pro-Trump lawyer was on the network and said Joe Biden, despite winning the election, wasn’t necessarily the president, saying, “Remember, just because CNN says — or even Fox News says — that’s somebody’s president, doesn’t make ‘em president,” the lawyer said. To be clear, Joe Biden won the election and is the President-Elect.

Sandra was momentarily off air and apparently thought she wouldn’t be heard, because it appeared as if she said something to fellow anchor Trace Gallagher to emphasize the election was already called.

“What? What is happening?” Sandra said, seeming incredulous. “Trace, we’ve called it.”

This is not the first time a Fox News host has done something that shocks viewers – something else happened this past Monday.
