blatantly fake but i was creasing regardless

CNN, during a segment this morning about a 103-year-old African-American woman, mistakenly aired a portion of a song that includes the word "nigga." Realizing the mistake, the anchor apologized soon after.

The segment was about Gladys Flamer, a woman from Pennsylvania who is still driving at 103 years of age. After telling the story, anchor Kyra Phillips said, "Miss Flamer, this shoutout's for you."

The audio cut to "Fantastic Voyage" by Coolio -- specifically, a part of the song with the words "punk ass nigga" -- over footage of the woman climbing into her car.

The chorus of that song begins, "Come along and ride on a fantastic voyage"

About 25 minutes later, Phillips acknowledged the mistake and apologized.

"We aired some music just a few minutes ago and, obviously for those of you who heard it, it was the wrong music that aired. It was a terrible mistake and we're working very hard to make up for it," she said.
