Seattle TV station fires editor over doctored Trump address video

A Seattle TV station has fired an editor after airing video footage of President Donald Trump's Oval Office address on immigration that appears to be altered.

FOX affiliate Q13 broadcast video from the Tuesday night speech that showed a more orange-toned Trump with his tongue hanging out languidly from his mouth after making a statement.

The video's filtered colors look more saturated and the tongue appears to be doctored. Mynorthwest.com posted side-by-side videos showing the discrepancies of the video, which was since scrapped from Q13.

Q13 news director Erica Hill said in a statement: 'This does not meet our editorial standards and we regret if it is seen as portraying the president in a negative light.'
