Fox News Host Accidentally Calls UCONN Basketball Team 'NAACP' Champions

Fox News Anchor's Mortifying Slip

Oh dear...

Fox News host Heather Childers was very excited to announce on Tuesday that the University of Connecticut Huskies were the new "NAACP National Champs." There was just one small problem: the Huskies are the new NCAA basketball champions, not the NAACP champions. That's...something else.

UPDATE: Heather Childers acknowledged the gaffe on Twitter, stating that she "just misspoke."

Watch the video from "Fox & Friends First" to see Childers' unfortunate slip.
