Iran has banned CNN journalists from working in the country after the broadcaster misquoted President Ahmadinejad as saying Iran wanted nuclear weapons, the ISNA students news agency said.
CNN's simultaneous translation of Ahmadinejad's lengthy news conference on Saturday included the phrase "the use of nuclear weapons is Iran's right".
In fact, what the Iranian president said was that "Iran has the right to nuclear energy", the official IRNA news agency reported.
The ban came as Christiane Amanpour, CNN's Iranian-born chief international correspondent, was in Iran to report on the nuclear issue.
