CNN Mistakes Gay Pride Dildo Flag for ISIS Flag (Video)

“I seem to be the only person who has spotted this,” CNN international assignment editor Lucy Pawle says

CNN apparently needs to give their employees a good lesson in sex toys.

CNN international assignment editor Lucy Pawle was walking down the street in London when she encountered a gay pride parade.

She was shocked when she saw someone carrying what looked like an ISIS flag in the crowd. The only problem: The flag was actually a parody of the ISIS flag covered in the images of dildos and butt plugs.

“This man in black and white was waving what appears to be a very bad mimicry–but a clear attempt to mimic–the ISIS flag,” Pawle said. “If you look at the flag closely, it’s clearly not Arabic. In fact it looks like it could be gobbledegook. I seem to be the only person who has spotted this.”

CNN has already pulled the video from their official site, but one viewer captured the segment and uploaded it to YouTube (below).

CNN has not responded to TheWrap’s request for comment.
