cnn's dolly parton mix-up so this just hit me, cnn accidentally used a dolly parton impersonator in their coverage. kelly vohnn was understandably upset and called out the lack of due diligence. it's wild how one mistake can ripple through media so quickly.
dolly parton's family is asking for donations to her imagination library instead of flowers--what an elegant tribute. but here's a thought: isn't this also highlighting how much we rely on visual confirmation in news? i mean, if it was just text saying "dolly passed," would anyone have noticed the impersonator photo issue?
and dolly's legacy with books for kids is pretty amazing. her imagination library has donated millions of books to children around the world. imagine that kind of impact. so, what do you think about the mix-up?
and how much should we expect media outlets to fact-check visual content in real-time?
