Netscape/CNN site calls Bush an asshole - employee fired
Advertisements [?]


"It was an image produced by an employee of another company," CNN spokesman Matt Furman told WorldNetDaily. "We didn't know anything about it and had nothing to do with it.

"Most importantly, it was never on CNN.com. … It's our picture, but it never appeared on our site."

CNN has fingered a Netscape employee as the culprit, and Netscape agrees.

"As soon as the situation was discovered, it was immediately corrected, and the employee has been terminated," said a Netscape spokesman. "CNN had nothing to do with the images, the terms, or the postings. We apologize to CNN and to anyone else offended in this matter."
