Corrected entry: At then end of the movie, Cyclops is watching Senator Kelly on the news, only to find out that it's really Mystique. He sees this because Kelly's eyes flash yellow, like Mystique's. Now, he saw this on national television. If Cyclops noticed this, then certainly anybody else watching would have also noticed that the Senator's eyes flashed yellow. And for anyone who says that it could be explained via 'colour distortion,' certainly the reporters who were actually there would have seen his eyes change color, even for a split second.

Correction: They noticed it because they were looking for it. They know Kelly is dead, so they assume it's Mystique. For one thing, they paused the frame, and for another thing the camera pushed in on the T.V. making the image appear bigger than it would be just watching it from your living room. As for anyone there, it was a bust scene. If anyone thought they saw it, for a spilt-second, why would they think it wasn't a trick of the light. The reporters don't know Kelly is dead, and they know nothing about Mystique.
