"Lava from the Kilauea eruption has boiled away Hawaii's largest freshwater lake in just a matter of hours.
In a statement released on June 2, the U.S. Geological Survey explained that lava from the eruption's fissure 8 entered Green Lake and boiled its water away, sending a white plume high into the sky.
USGS tweeted that lava entered Green Lake at 10 AM local time. By 3PM, Hawaii County Fire Department confirmed that the lake had filled and that its water had evaporated." foxnews.com/science/2018/06/12/hawaii-volcano-kilauea-lava-boiled-away-big-islands-largest-freshwater-lake.html

For some reason, this bothers me:
Was there a (D) after Kilauea?

Well, absolutely in character for the submitter, but might tell something about the editors...
But certainly it's the ridiculous Green Lake that had the (D) - and isn't the name telling! - while the victorious Kilauea would have carried the (R), if not a TRUMP in all caps.

And your comment perfectly in character for an AC.
Prove the story wrong, or STFU.
No, you are mistaken. I've always had this sig.

It may be a science story, but the embedded video still feels very Fox New. Big headlines in all caps and bolding point words in red. Such as:

It's a fresh story on Fox it seems, but amusingly it was covered on other sites around a week or more ago (note the date in the URL below from NPR)

For some reason, this bothers me: foxnews.com/science/
Fox News concedes the existence of Volcanoes because Global Warming.
It's every other part of Geology they misinform their audience about.
