As long as they model their news after this, I'm not surprised. Anyway - CNN has a track record of being creative with their research.

They probably just did a google image search for "UNSC logo". The first image is the one they ended up using :P
The guy would have to be a 18 year intern to not have an idea what the United Nations logo looks like. Plus I didn't even know the Security Council had their own logo?!

NOTE: For those who don't get the irony, please google what the Maquis are.
