Nice Going CNN….

Apparently, CNN had a post on their CNN iReport website this week that stated a huge asteroid had a 50% chance of impacting the earth on March 35, 2041.

You read that right - March 35th. Let's see, "30 days hath September, April, June....." But somebody at CNN let it stay on the website, without checking it's authenticity, for a whole 24 hours. The iReport site is supposed to be a way for the public to share news and eyewitness reports of news events - but it looks like it's also a great way to prank America.

Hmmm.....

What?! Read this. And let's keep that last part between you and I.
