VIDEO: CNN Host Blatantly Calls Stephen A Smith by the Wrong Name

Everybody makes mistakes, but when that blunder is a CNN anchor calling a famous ESPN host the wrong name on live television, the error had to go viral. While teasing Stephen A. Smith's upcoming appearance on her show, CNN Newsroom host Ana Cabrera misspoke and got Smith's name very wrong.

Although she caught her mistake just seconds after, Twitter has gotten a good laugh out of this mishap.

Stephen A. is one of the most polarizing personalities in sports media. He is known for spouting hot takes and passionately defending his opinions on the ESPN show 'First Take'. 

Smith's predictions and reactions have helped him reach internet superstardom, as both a legitimate talking head and meme. This year, he was invited to coach one of the two teams in the NBA All-Star Celebrity Game. His haters have even gone so far to post Youtube compilations of times that he has been wrong.

Watching Stephen A's name misinterpreted by a professional journalist brings delight to those who just want to see Smith fail at every turn. Although embarrassing, someone of Smith's fame is surely unbothered by such a minor slip-up.
