CNN had a rough Friday.
First, the network had to correct egregious, humiliating fake news in a report about Trump-Russia collusion.
Now, it seems CNN cannot get the identities right of White House staff. In a segment featuring a quote from current Trump deputy director of communications Raj Shah, CNN used in the image of another Raj Shah, who served in the Obama White House.

The network was torched by press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders for the failure. Sanders said, “CNN this is definitely not Raj Shah but it is #FakeNews.”

Bad way to end the week.
