CNN’s TeXnical Cheney Glitch

Well, it wasn’t a vast left-wing media conspiracy after all…

CNN anchor/reporter Daryn Kagan: “I have come back into the control room because we want to explain something to you that happened on this newscast yesterday. During our live coverage of a speech by Vice President Dick Cheney there was a technical malfunction, you’ll see it here.



It involved a switcher, something we call a switcher. It’s a machine that we use to switch between visual elements.



Now, that glitch resulted in that ‘X’ that you saw being flashed briefly across the screen as the vice president was speaking.

So it was a mistake.



Good I say.



And hey, if Carl Cameron can make up fake quotes and mistakenly post it on Foxnews.com, CNN can make a technical glitch.



Agreed?
