Someone at the Secret Service apparently accidentally bashed Fox News from the Secret Service’s official Twitter account earlier today.

“Had to monitor Fox for a story. Can’t. Deal. With. The. Blathering.” the account briefly read, before the Tweet was deleted.

Why was the Secret Service monitoring Fox News? Reports ABC News’ Jake Tapper:

Asked why the employee was monitoring Fox News Channel, Donovan said, “Our public affairs employees monitor all the news channels throughout the day for stories that effect the Secret Service.”

Asked which story this employee was focused on, Donovan said “I don’t know.”

Chalk it up to another Twitter blooper, many of which we’ve collected here.
