The best ones are the ones where you can see them processing "oh crap what have I done?" halfway through the words coming out their mouth.

The girl's head nod at the end is great.

This would be front page news if it had been on FoxNews. Instead, it's on CNN, so nobody will care and CNN won't even apologize.

A CNN spokeswoman said Camoreta’s comment had nothing to do with the girl’s heritage, and the interview was not the first time the anchor joked about Sanskrit being the origin of “covfefe.”

“Alisyn made the same joking reference to the root of ‘covfefe’ in an earlier panel discussion that aired Wednesday. If she’s guilty of anything it’s recycling a joke. To assign a bias to what was a fun and innocent segment celebrating Ananya Vinay’s incredible accomplishment is frankly extremely cynical,” the spokesperson said in a statement, referring to a transcript of the Wednesday segment.
