CNN News Map Accidentally Locates London In Norfolk

Last Sunday, the American news network CNN made a major geographical blunder. While broadcasting a news report, a map of England was shown to viewers. Shockingly, London, one of the world’s largest cities, was represented on the map in the wrong place.

Instead of being in the correct position, London was shown as being located in the far east of England in Norfolk. It was a mistake of over 120 miles.

The British press was having a field day with CNN’s error. The British newspaper The Daily Mail attributed CNN’s gaffe to people in the United States’, “poor grasp of geography.” CNN has issued an apology to its viewers.
