Is it true that the Brazilian TV presenter was mistakenly called Joe Biden Ben Laden?

In November 2024, Russian -speaking media reported the next incident related to the current president of the United States. We checked the reliability of this news.

On a distributed video clip from a television portage, a woman on Portuguese pronounces a name Heads of the Al-Qaeda terrorist organization Osama bin Laden, Killed by the American military, but after the commentary from the interlocutor, Biden recovers and mentions. Some publications specify that the Brazilian TV presenter is called Ana Maria Braga, and the case happened during the G20 summit.

The morning author’s show Ana Maria Brahi Mais Você has been entering the main Brazilian TV channel TV Globo for 25 years. Initially, the program was purely culinary, but over time the host began to devote broadcasts to other topics: beauty and health, and sometimes politics. From time to time there are incidents: for example, in 2022 after the story of Braga about racism in relation to children on the screen Brought off Image of a monkey. That mistake was technical. But another scandal turned into a trial: in 2024 the court obliged Brah and TV Globo pay 45,000 Rialov (about € 7400) for an episode of 15 years ago-the presenter quoted a fragment of the book, but called the name of the not the writer who was considered a copyright violation.

President Lula and the first lady of Zhange greeted the heads of state and took a series of official photographs with French President Emmanuel Macron, and also gently shook the hand of Ben Laden from the United States. ” “Joe Biden,” the puppet parrot Luro Manet, her permanent co -host. “Joe Biden! I'm really a little out of myself from the very beginning. Joe Biden! " - the TV presenter reacted.

Thus, a video that caused a stir in Russian -speaking social networks is genuine. It is interesting that journalists have repeatedly confused the previous American democrat of Barack Obama with Osama Ben Laden-probably due to the similarity of Osama and Obama in English. A selection of such cases published The Washington Post.
