Brian Kilmeade admitted that he showed a doctored photo of the judge who authorized the FBI to search the Mar-a-Lago estate.
While filling in for Tucker Carlson on Thursday, Kilmeade displayed a fake image of a judge having his feet massage by a convicted sex offender and holding alcohol on a plane.

I don't know. Hannity replied, "I'll let you determine that in the morning"
The fake photo seems to be a reference to the work that Reinhart did in the past.
Last night while subbing for Tucker Carlson, we showed you an image of Judge Bruce Reinhart with Ghislaine Maxwell that was not real. We wanted to make clear that we were showing a joke.
Last night while subbing for Tucker Carlson, we showed you an image of Judge Bruce Reinhart w/ Ghislaine Maxwell that was sourced on screen to a meme pulled from Twitter & wasn’t real. This depiction never took place & we wanted to make clear that we were showing a meme in jest.

Kilmeade hasn't apologized to the viewers who saw the image and thought it was real.
