Fox News analyst accidentally reveals 'Sexy Vixen Vinyl' website tab in screenshot of Super Tuesday predictions

Searches suggest browser tab leads to website which sells vinyl lingerie set

A Fox News political analyst has been caught in an apparently embarrassing situation after a webpage screenshot he shared on Twitter revealed a browser tab for a “Sexy Vixen Vinyl”

​Brit Hume, a conservative political commentator, posted the image of an election betting odds website on Tuesday morning while commenting on the state of the Democratic presidential primary.

However, he apparently forgot to crop his browser tabs out of the image and in doing so revealed some seemingly unrelated internet activity.

In between tabs for an online banking service and a website on coronavirus was a webpage entitled “Sexy Vixen Vinyl”.

Although only Mr Hume can know exactly what he was looking at, a number of political commentators have noted that searching for the term leads to a lingerie set made from vinyl called “Sexy Vixen Vinyl Set”.

The Fox News analyst has now deleted the tweet and replaced it with a version which crops the image so the tabs are no longer visible.

He has not yet acknowledged the deleted post on his Twitter account.

“Oh man, Brit straight up played himself,” Greg Pinelo, a Democratic strategist, said in reference to the post.

The incident was similar to a previous mishap involving Texas senator Ted Cruz, when his official account “liked” a two-minute pornographic video on Twitter in 2017.

Although the account did not share the video, liking the post made it visible to millions of people on a section of his profile.

Mr Cruz insisted the “like” was a mistake as he attempted to make light of the incident.

“This is not how I envisioned waking up this morning,” the Republican senator said.

“Although I will say that if I had known that this would trend so quickly, perhaps we should have posted something like this back during the Indiana primary.”
