There were many reasons to laugh at CNN's inept coverage of the events in Boston last week - we have a whole list of 'em here! - but it doesn't look like CNN Worldwide president Jeff Zucker feels the same way. In an internal memo sent out to CNN staff, Zucker praised the team's efforts, and said he felt the network really "shined" through the "exceptional work."
If you recall, CNN was one of the biggest networks to trip over themselves in a rush to report news that a suspect had been arrested in connection with the Boston marathon bombings - when no one had actually been arrested.
The full memo, which was obtained by Politico:
None
No mention of that one time the website reported conflicting stories right on top of each other on its front page, or the other time a hot pink dildo just so happened to appear on screen? Did Zucker even watch CNN?
Meanwhile, Jon Stewart, ever the sane one, took to his Comedy Central series The Daily Show to rip into CNN for their coverage, calling them "the human centipede of news." You can check out that much more entertaining (and logical!) clip below.
