Understandable mistake, though, using a meme photo of Kyle Shanahan with Elaine Chao in the hospital instead of a real one. Source: The Daily MailA Chicago-based TV station has gone viral for being tricked into using a fake image of San Francisco 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan in hospital. WGN-TV ran the picture of Shanahan sitting upright in a hospital bed alongside a woman, suggesting it was in the aftermath of the car crash that has left him with multiple serious injuries. But the actual photo, released earlier this month, was of Senator Mitch McConnell and his wife Elaine Chao following his admission to hospital in mid-June after a fall and 'mild case of pneumonia'. Earlier this week, Shanahan admitted to a small group of 49ers reporters that he was to blame for the car crash in northern California on July 14 after briefly looking away from the road to pick up his cell phone.
