BBC uses incorrect logo from "Halo" for UN Security Council

Looks like BBC made a bit of a gaming goof on international television during one of their segments involving the United Nations Security Council and Syria. Though even the hardest of gamers might have glazed over the error while it was happening, once it is pointed out there is no doubt -- the respectable BBC misused the logo of a fictional organization from the Halo games in place of the correct one created by the UN Security Council.

One might be able to understand the error. After all, the two organizations do share the same acronym: UNSC. A cursory search for "UNSC" on Google image search shows that it's one of the top results. However, taking a look at the image context and doing a bit of research beforehand should have solved this problem.

I bet some intern somewhere is cursing himself right now.
