    ox News apologized Saturday to a Gold Star family for
    publishing a false story last month claiming that the
    family had to pay $60,000 to ship the remains of their
    fallen relative back from Afghanistan because the
    Pentagon refused to pay.

    “The now unpublished story has been addressed internally
    and we sincerely apologize to the Gee family,” a Fox News
    spokesperson said in a statement...

    The apology came after a Military.com report this week
    drew attention to the issue and indicated that the
    right-wing outlet’s top executives had repeatedly been
    notified by senior members of the Marine Corps that it
    was pushing a false story.

    Old news. Took them a month to apologize and correct the story. First, they softened the
    language. Then they deleted the article without a comment.

    Three quarters of a billion dollars and they're *still* deliberately lying.
