Oops. That’s not Adam Whittington.

Updated: Now who's bungled what? Just one problem with Sunday Night's promo.

Sunday Night‘s story on “the bungled Beirut child snatch” has a bungle of its own.

A photo of “Adam Whittington” left to rot in a Beirut prison is not Adam Whittington.

It’s actually Nine cameraman Ben Williamson, who was one of the four crew members also detained by authorities in Lebanon.

The promo boo-boo comes despite Sunday Night being executive produced by Hamish Thomson, who left Nine after 22 years in May. But perhaps he didn’t get to sight the promo.

The merry-go-round continues….

Update: Sunday Night advises it has now corrected its promos but deleted its tweet.
