The Hill reports:
Fox News made a chyron error on Thursday that is getting some mockery on social media after President Trump retweeted the video of it to his 33.4 million followers. “West Saved by the Blood of Patriarchs,” read the Fox graphic as President Trump spoke during a speech in Poland. Trump actually stated: “The West was saved with the blood of patriots,” per a White House transcript. Chryon writers are tasked in live speech coverage situations with supplying verbatim quotes of a speaker in real-time, leading to occasional mistakes.
THE WEST WILL NEVER BE BROKEN. Our values will PREVAIL. Our people will THRIVE and our civilization will TRIUMPH! pic.twitter.com/sozuVgdp5T

Blood of patriarchs?
Say what now? You got a transfusion from your dad?
Because otherwise you sound like an Ayatollah. https://t.co/B7v908d9W8

Okay, maybe we should listen to Fox News and start bleeding patriarchs.
Enough patriarch blood on the altar and the west is saved!— Sounds Like Kira?⚧ (@CiaraTheBraid) July 6, 2017
Really great that POTUS: WEST SAVED BY BLOOD OF PATRIARCHS is a real chyron from today and not some weird warhammer 40k fanfiction
