[edit] Allegedly "Forgot His Own Name"
Morris was famously ridiculed by the liberal blog Huffington Post for "forgetting" his own name twice in one broadcast. The Video went viral shortly after. As noted in the Huffington Post article, "Morris was reading the intro to the Fox & Friends web feature, Fox Flash, when he jokingly introduced himself as "Fox & Friends" co-host Steve Doocy." The article also quoted a Fox News insider who claimed this prank was not received well by Fox higher-ups: "It was wishful thinking on Morris' part, and executives didn't find it amusing."
