Fury spread after Fox News' latest update regarding the Colorado wildfires... though it wasn't the wildfires the crowds were upset over, but rather, the music selection.

The segment in question aired on Friday night on Fox News during a "Special Report with Bret Baier."

You can watch the segment here:

Baier gave an update on the two fires that have been ongoing in Colorado for more than two weeks. The first fire, the "East Troublesome Fire" started back on October 14 and has spread to more than 192-thousand acres and crossed the Continental Divide.

The second fire, the "Cameron Peak Fire," is the largest fire in Colorado's history and has spread across more than 206-thousand acres.

Both fires have reached the Rocky Mountain National Park, and the two fires have forced thousands to evacuate their homes. At this time, at least 30 people are presumed dead, and the count continues to rise, as does the missing persons list.

Baier gave his update:

"The big story out there tonight, at least five people are unaccounted for in a huge wildfire burning in Grand County."

"The sheriff out there says there may be more as people call in to report their loved ones missing. The fire has grown rapidly since it started October 14th."

Baier closed his segment traditionally, stating:

"That is tonight's live look outside the Beltway from 'Special Report'. We'll be right back."

As Baier said this line, the image in the news segment switched from the raging fire in Grand County over to an urban view of Denver, Colorado.

But quite jarringly, a song was included in the end segment, too.

Quite distastefully, none other than Johnny Cash's "The Ring of Fire" began to play.

Over the image of Denver, the lyrics could be heard:

"I fell into a ring of fire. I fell into a burning ring of fire. I went down, down, down, and the flames went higher."

Viewers were surprised and appalled at the song choice.

Though the song itself is about metaphorically falling into a ring of fire (which was meant to describe love), the timing was tone-deaf in light of the damages, deaths, and missing persons Colorado currently has to endure.

When Colorado journalist Kyle Clark pointed out the jarring juxtaposition on Twitter, fellow Twitter users did not let it go quietly.

Following the backlash, Baier issued a statement, saying:

"The song chosen for the bump music was a terrible mistake and a complete oversight. We regret the insensitive error and hope & pray the missing are found unharmed and the fires there are contained."

Though Johnny Cash may have been singing about falling in love, any mention of a ring of fire during these terrible ongoing wildfires is nothing short of distasteful.

We'd recommend not using songs that emphasize the weather or the four physical elements for any future natural occurrences.
