While discussing the history of detainees at the facility, CNN aired a graphic meant to reference Abu Zubaydah, an alleged Al-Qaeda operative still held at the facility.

However, the network made a critical mistake in labeling Osama bin Laden’s name—replacing it with “Obama Bin Laden” on-screen.

The graphic error quickly went viral, drawing widespread mockery and renewed scrutiny of CNN’s editorial standards.

Critics pointed out the significant difference between former President Barack Obama and the late terrorist leader Osama bin Laden, questioning how such an error made it to air without being caught by CNN’s production team.
