According to Breitbart and other sources, Apple’s ‘Siri’ had either a glitch or a prank pulled on it after yesterday’s #FredoCuomo Twitter trend regarding a viral video showing CNN’s Chris Cuomo as being ‘unhinged’.
As can be seen in the photo below, people who asked ‘Siri’ questions about Chris Cuomo ended up getting information about ‘Fredo Cuomo’ instead. Fredo, of course, is a character from the movie The Godfather and a nickname given to Cuomo by a man in the viral video as an apparent insult.
The viral video was shared By President Trump, Donald Trump Jr., and many others.

From Breitbart:
By Tuesday evening, the mistake was apparently fixed and Siri was referring the Chris Cuomo by his correct name. Apple did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
