A TV captioning mishap put actress Zooey Deschanel in the limelight for all the wrong reasons.
During Friday’s search for the second Boston Marathon bombing suspect in Watertown, Mass., a local FOX affiliate mistakenly labeled Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev as Deschanel in the caption of its breaking news coverage.
Deschanel quickly jumped on Twitter to poke fun at the station’s gaffe.
Whoa! Epic closed captioning FAIL! “@joelmchale: Oh my RT @peterogburn: twitter.com/peterogburn/st…“
