In a recent news segment on CNN focused on a U.S. Navy Seal claiming to have shot and killed Bin Laden in the momentous 2011 raid in Abbottabad, the cable news channel aired a rolling news banner that read: “SEAL WHO CLAIMS HE KILLED OBAMA UNDER ATTACK.”
According to Alarabiya website, the gaffe banner stayed for almost 50 seconds during the channel’s Erin Burnett OutFront show.
The channel eventually changed ‘Obama’ to ‘Bin Laden,’ but not before viewers took plenty screengrabs of the mistake.
