CNN & White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham spar over a mistake in CNN's Hurricane coverage

CNN on Thursday took a jab at White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham after she criticized a mistake in the network's coverage on Hurricane Dorian.

Grisham ridiculed CNN on Twitter after it incorrectly showed the state of Alabama as Mississippi on a graphic.

She tweeted, "Hi @CNN, I know you guys are busy analyzing lines on a map, but perhaps you use your time to study up on U.S. geography?"

Responding directly to Grisham's tweet, CNN Communications official Twitter account said, "Thanks, Stephanie. Yes, we made a mistake (which we fixed in less than 30 seconds). And now we are admitting it. You all should try it sometime."

That’s the real headline.

None of this “Both sides sparring” BS.
