With their frequently tenuous relationship with the truth, CNN, the news channel has called long-running hardcore/metal outfit Hatebreed a white power act in this article. Here is the original quote:

At any given time, about 100 to 150 white power bands are in the United States. The bands' own names defiantly express feelings of hate or violence: Aggravated Assault, Angry Aryans, Attack, Definite Hate, Final Solution, Force Fed Hate, Fueled by Hate, Hatebreed, Hate Crime, Jew Slaughter and White Terror, among others.



Courageously, the author - Lonnie Nasatir of Anti-Defamation League's Upper Midwest Region - removed the accusation from the story without acknowledging it.



Update: Well, the story was amended to acknowledge the mistake; this doesn't really excuse the sloppy and shockingly irresponsible behavior by the author and by CNN, neither of whom apparently felt that typing a band name into Google would be worth their time.
