Ebola virus: "So CNN doesn't know where Nigeria is..." CNN goofs in new report
The news channels got it all wrong last night while running a story concerning the spread of Ebola in Western Africa including Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia.
In the report, CNN claimed there are 1,603 cases, 887 deaths and 55% fatality rate - however, while highlighting the countries affected, they accidentally highlighted Niger for Nigeria.
Of course, the error is trending on the social moment at the moment.
A Nigerian, Taiwo Odusote tweeted “Apparently, CNN doesn't know where Nigeria is” while another user, Temi Ige wrote “Yeah, so CNN doesn't know where Nigeria is…that’s actually really worrying”
A non-Nigerian also said “CNN, that’s not Nigeria with the red, correct the map, reminds me of the time CNN mistakenly labeled Brazil as Hong Kong”
