Still not as goofy as showing random ArmA 2 mod footage as documentary footage in a report about IRA.

That was sarcasm?

How anybody could be sarcastic when you post such important news :P

I don't blame them. United Nations Security Council, United Nations Space Command and both of their logos look the same in a way

It was video games related. And I found funny that BBC documentalists, maybe the TV company with the biggest archive in the world use so poor sources of information.

Well, as I said before, so bad for a BBC documentalist.

Edit: Using google images indicates a lack of profesionalism.

They typed in the right phrase, but they couldn't be bothered to check the result. Which is what makes this so embarrassing.

True. I don't know how a journalist wouldn't know how un logo looks like.
