Why do you think the Fox network misidentified Foley as a Democrat?

Everyone knows the Fox network is part of the Republican propaganda machine. Do they not know Foley as one of their own? Or do they just not want to claim him? Perhaps they think so little of their viewers intelligence that they thought they could fool them into thinking he was a Democrat and therefore keep their votes? Mabe it was just an honest mistake? NOT! They are sh$#ing their pants and my soul sings!
