NEW YORK, Nov. 11 (UPI) -- Fox News host Megyn Kelly slipped up in a pretty big way Monday night while introducing former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee.

"Joining me now, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, who is the host of F**ka-- ah, Huckabee right here on the Fox News channel..."

Kelly pressed on, getting only a small smile from the governor. But the Huck-up got plenty of notice on social media, and Kelly addressed the gaffe later in the show.

"Something else that happened on the program is also getting a lot of attention on Twitter," she said, "including this tweet from some nice man named Sean who said 'Megyn you're a delight to watch and gave a stoic performance after your slip up with Governor Huckabee's name.'"
