Mistakes happen, but WGN Morning News anchors Larry Potash and Robin Baumgarten were both left with their feet in their mouths after they reported on plane crash that happened to be a planned shoot for the NBC drama "Chicago Fire." We all fuck up occasionally, even in real time.

In the past, WGN News has been too late, and this time they jumped the gun. In a climate where media outlets are fighting to be "first" with breaking news, sometimes it's just best to stop and think. There's no way Will McAvoy would have this in his newsroom.
