This is pretty interesting. I mean, this reminds me of the Max Headroom thing from the 80's. Maybe it was something along the lines of a broadcasting error.
Maybe,maybe not. Now that I think about it, the bump could've been a broadcasting hijack, just like the aforementioned Max Headroom incident. They are sort of similar(i.e strange imagery, vague audio, no known culprit or point of origin) so this theory isn't completwly out there.

For all we know, it could have been one of those cable splice hijackings, which might explain why it's so hard to find.
Also, you mentioned TV hijackings, so I'm interested again.

I cant find anything online about CNN broadcast hijackings that sounds remotely familiar to the originally stated ident

No. We've come to the conclusion that the CNN Puppet bump (my name for it) may have been some sort of cable splice or broadcast hijacking. I'm still trying to figure out how to post my photoshop recreation of the bump on this forum, I'm stuck as it's saved as a .jpg file and I don't know how to get it hosted on a website.

Actually, I doubt that it was a hijacking of some sort. It must have been a one-off bumper.
Just upload the .jpg file to Imgur, then embed the link here.

Or alternatively, you can embed your recreation of this bumper by using the "Add Attachment" button when you reply to a post at the right of the screen if you don't want to post your image on a image-sharing website.

Despite the frustrations of normal day life we go through, the best thing to do about it is still being happy for our friends and family.

After looking at the image. It reminds me of a hijacking. Seems just a bit to weird for it to be a one off bumper on a news station. Yes, I know it’s CNN but it still seems off.
I can say this was 100% not a hijacking. We would have heard about this way before this thread, it would have been infamous and all over since they almost never happen. The way OP describes makes it sound like a regular bumper. The issue becomes they've made a lot of bumpers and this might have only been on a few weeks

If someone could post something on Bump Worthy about this bump, I think it would benefit the search, seeing as how Bump Worthy catalogues bumps (I know they're mostly all from Adult Swim) and somebody there might know something we don't.
