Journalists say the funniest things

Dec 19, 2007 16:52

I was just watching a news report on the telly and they were briefly mentioning the fire in the building where Bush and Cheney have their offices. The journalist reported that "...Cheney was not in his office when the fire broke out, but the building was evacuated nonetheless."

LMAO I don't even think she noticed what she said. But OMG I'm still chuckling like a maniac.

Speaking of linguistic mistakes:
The Danish word for cancer is only one letter away from the word for force. I don't recall who the otherwise very good  article was about, but it called the woman a 'cancer of nature'. A rather unfortunate mistake, if I do say so myself.

media, news
