Blown out of proportion
It does not matter which television network makes a mistake but it all gets blown out of proportion. The following is from Yahoo News about an incident on Fox.

Eric Bolling, host of the Fox Business Network show "Follow the Money," apologized to viewers on Monday for using racist language during a segment that aired last week.
"We got a little fast and loose with the language," Bolling said, "and we know it's being interpreted as disrespectful, and for that I'm sorry."
In a segment that aired on Friday, Bolling referred to the White House as the "Hizzouse" and "Hizzy," and President Obama's guests--including Gabon President Ali Bongo--as "hoods."
"We did go a bit too far," Bolling admitted.

They got a little sloppy and funny in their commentary - but to have a "racist" spin put on it is a little ridiculous, in my opinion.
