Isaw this live Saturday, the reporter never flinched ... 

You were watching CNN on a Saturday night? There wasn't anything better to watch like maybe QVC or the Lint Channel?

Close enough...CNN got the planet correct in 1 out of nine possibilities. Geography does not appear to be a CNN strong suit.

CNN doesn’t see anything wrong with a Kenyan in the WH either ;-)

It was early Saturday morning and I was switching channels. CNN had a story coming up about bees in China, then that popped up on the screen. I saw it at 6:45 am, so it looks like it was shown several times before they caught it ...

I didn't see this.

But I did see a couple of graphics on FNC recently--I think it was Saturday--that caught my attention: One spoke of a "fiery car rash" in Tennessee; and the other mentioned President Obama's canceling his planned "strip" to Asia.

One has to wonder if these were just innocent mistakes; or if the person in charge of the graphics was being cute...

Ahhhhhh , no worries, it’s the result of the government shutdown since they have to hire scabs to work for the Communist National Network.

There’s only two things you have to know to work at CNN.

1. The toilet has one handle and the sink has two handles. Don’t wash your hands in the one that only has one handle.

2. When’s payday.

This is at least as credible as the Arizona Republic placing the Republic of Georgia in the southeastern United States.

My favorite is the drying paint channel, especially beige paint.

Let's see, CNN got the wrong continent, wrong hemisphere and wrong side of the equator. And Brazil is about as far awang from Hong Kong that you can get on this planet.
