Huge typo on CNN

Post by Master of Ossus »

On the front page of CNN.com:
CNN wrote:There was talk of a new revolution in Boston on the second night of the Democratic National Convention. In a speech that tied the city's history with the Democrats' future Sen. Ted Kennedy, one of the first high-profile Democrats to back Sen. John Kennedy's presidential campaign, said: "We bear no ill will toward our opponents. In fact, we'd be happy to have them over for a polite little tea party."
Apparently, Kennedy's historical emphasis ended up shipping the press corps to a bygone era, too. :lol:

He did run for President back in 1980 against Jimmy Carter in the Democratic Primaries. The Democrats kept Carter.

That should tell you just how badly people outside of MA view Teddy Kennedy. :P

God, I certainly hope so, I would love to see Ted Kennedy dragged through the mud on a national level.

In a similar vain, there's a clip of Tom Brokaw making a risque slip of the tongue going around. It can be found here
