• the reporter is no better
  she states that
  
  "In fact, it was the government of the United Arab Emirates state of Abu Dhabi, not Apple, that had purchased the stake in AMD."
  
  Abu Dhabi is the capital, not a state.
  
  She also stated:
  
  "When the mistake became clear, Glick's co-host, Peter Barnes, said, "Oh, the Arabs. OK." To make matters worse, the program even referred to the country incorrectly, as "Abu Dubai," not "Abu Dhabi."
  
  Referred to the country incorrectly, not Abu Dhabi...Abu Dhabi is the capital, not the country.
  
  Everyone involved in this story is obtuse. Probably even myself for taking the time/caring enough to write this. In reply to: "In on-air gaffe, Fox Business Network confuses Apple with Abu Dhabi"
