People who live in glass houses…

While mocking President Trump’s “covfefe” tweet, CNN got an instant dose of karma as a typo of their own aired during the segment.

Gloria Borger is CNN’s Chief Political Analyst but was credited as the network’s “Cheif” Political Analyst in an appearance on Wednesday. The on-screen error was shared on social media to the delight of Twitter users.

And while the typo was not breaking news, its occurrence during the segment mocking Trump for his now viral tweet of a mysterious word, was too perfect to ignore.

If CNN’s stock of on air personalities were to be quizzed about basic spelling and grammar and basic American history and geography(as well as world), I would not be in the least surprised that many would fail such a quiz. I remember Wolf Blitzer’s spectacular performance on “Jeopardy” quite well.

Legit as in “They really broadcast that” rather than “Hong Kong moved to South America.”

That is great!

Isn’t CNN the one who spelled the name of Niger Innes incorrectly?

Luckily, they weren’t interviewing Niger Innes. I believe that MSNBC or some other “news” outlet had a very unfortunate issue with that name once.

That rule is dead.

"This is a two-fer! Not only do we get Cheif, but we get a new name for Nancy: Losi!!"

And, as a side note, someone should tell Nancy Peloser that "covfefe" spelled backwards is "efefvoc". (And another alternate spelling of her name is Nancy Pelousy.)
