VIDEO: CNN anchor gets confused about guest’s gender, gets burned
Foreign names can be difficult to decipher. But still, you’re likely to offend someone when you confuse their name for the opposite gender. That’s precisely what happens in this clip when CNN anchor Kyra Phillips assumes she’s talking to a Libyan woman, only to find out he’s a man.
