CNN.com ran an article published over a year ago about Donald Trump’s infamous 2005 “Access Hollywood” comments on the front page Saturday.

According to the URL, the post was published on October 7, 2016, and contains a clip from “The Lead with Jake Tapper” discussing and replaying Trump’s infamous remarks caught by a hot mic.

The text reads, “In audio from 2005, recently obtained by the Washington Post, Donald Trump is heard making lewd comments about an unnamed woman to former Access Hollywood host Billy Bush.”

On Saturday, the story sat on CNN’s front page among several other posts under the lead story, which used a photo of both Donald Trump and Democratic Sen. Al Franken.

One of the stories it sat underneath was another clip from Jake Tapper’s show, “Tapper goes through Trump accusers one-by-one.” (RELATED: ‘The View’ Quickly Pivots From Talking Franken To Attacking Trump)
