In an attempt to release the news of Osama bin Laden’s death quickly late Sunday night, MSNBC correspondent Norah O’Donnell accidentally reported on Twitter that “Obama” had been “killed” instead.

How unprofessional can you be and still keep your job on MSNBC?
Apparently Jerry Rivera made the same mistake
on Fox also.
I heard it via FOX news on the radio. Maybe they got their feed from msnbc?
How do you get a Champaign cork back in the bottle??
It was Jery Rivera then. That would be two slips of the tongue then. See my former post.
That’s what I thought I heard on the radio! I couldn’t understand why the announcer was so blase’ about it.
You could fill multiple threads with quotes to confound that question. :)
Obama, Osama....I get those 2 mixed up as well (whistling)
Just like when they reported that Elvis had died - when EVERYONE knows he is alive and well and living in Boise ...
Page already removed... LOL
“And this just in tonight, Obama, er, Obamasama, er, Obama bin Laden....I mean, that terrorist guy.......
A post from that site:
“I can’t believe anyone could make that mistake. One of them believes America is Satan and needs to be punished for all it’s past deeds, that Christians are a dangerous enemy and that the only way to atone is for us to bow to our betters in the Middle-East.”

Fat Teddy made that mistake, if memory serves.
Another post from that site:
Well, well, well… What do we have here ? An MSNBC twit, a liberal peabrain who will slam any Republican, especially if it is Palin, for any little mis-speak.
A woman who constantly implies, hints and even outright states that the Republicans and/or conservatives are racist, homophobes and stupid. This is the same woman who, among her many vapid statements, called Gingrich a racist because he said Obama should stop playing basketball, and who picked a political fight with a 17 year old Palin supporter.
It is one thing to mis-speak, but this was not the spoken word. She had to type it out. It was the written word, easy to proofread, easy to correct before sending it out.
So, when a media personality (alleged)sends out the written word without checking it, without taking just a few seconds to proofread…how stupid is that ?
Careful Careful...It’s a trap!
