Like the events of this past week in Cairo - today's announcement that Egyptian officials (including President Mubarak) had resigned from the governing National Democratic Party - ended up being a murky distortion of the truth.
It didn't help matters much that one of Egypt's top State News Agency got it wrong, too!
Later this morning, reporters around the globe scrambled to set the record straight, but not without a few headaches in the process!
Jeepers creepers!
What an embarrassing snafu, eh?
It has now been confirmed, however, that the top leadership of Egypt's governing National Democratic Part resigned Saturday - in spite of the fact President Murbarak continues to dig in his heels - and hold fast to his vow to see out his term.
Among those who resigned?
President Hosni Mubarak's son - Gamal - who many feared would assume the "throne" of the corrupt regime once his father stepped aside reluctantly in the fall.
Whether Vice President Omar Suleiman manipulates the strings behind-the-scenes - with the blessing of Foreign Leaders around the Globe - remains to be seen.
News at 11!
