A tweet posted to the Good Morning America Twitter account on Thursday erroneously described Ketanji Brown Jackson as being the nation’s first-ever black Supreme Court Justice.
“Ketanji Brown Jackson is sworn in as the first Black Supreme Court justice in U.S. history,” the now-deleted post declared.

The inaccurate tweet was reportedly up for hours before being deleted, but Good Morning America eventually issued a correction post.
CORRECTION: Video shows Ketanji Brown Jackson sworn in as the first Black female Supreme Court justice in U.S. history.
A previous tweet erroneously stated Jackson is the first Black Supreme Court justice. https://t.co/aWelikUtZg pic.twitter.com/eCVLnwvqcR
