CNN journo thinks Bastille Day commemorates WWI

C’est CNN … As any student of history knows, Bastille Day commemorates the day a French mob “liberated” a few guys who didn’t want to be liberated out of the Bastille prison in Paris. It is also the French national holiday, a fact that CNN’s Jeff Zeleny obviously didn’t know. He told the CNN audience that Bastille Day commemorated the 100th anniversary of the U.S. getting into World War One.

No, really, he did.

The Boston Herald’s Tom Shattuck – whom this writer has worked with in the past – grabbed the video.
