Yes, they are wrong. The fact that they are online information sources doesn't make them flawless when it comes to knowledge.

I already gave you the meanings of those words, it's left for you to apply them and try to see if the example in question fits the explanation given. You should be able to think for yourself.

I think for myself and I think you do as well. Don't you?

Jayy10:
Lol I already posted the meaning of palindrome.

A mirror image is an image or object which is identical in form to another, but with the structure reversed, as in a mirror.

So Prof., are you saying cnn.com and the blog https://phonecontactsforcash.online/blog/f/why-is-today-02-02-2020-a-unique-date-a-palindrome erred in referring to the date as a Palindrome?
Educate us Sir.

Jayy10:
It's a word, sequence, phrase or sentence which has the same pronunciation or form when read backwards.

2020 read backwards doesn't take the same form, but an inverse "reflection" (0202) . That makes it a mirror image, not a palindrome.

A good example of a palindrome is "madam" . Read it backwards and see that it takes exactly the same form when read forwards.

So you know better than the native speakers of the English language you are typing with, right?
Well done Professor Jayy10.
You could have done better by posting the definitions of Palindrome and Mirror image Sir.

Jayy10:
I'd call this a mirror image, not a palindrome.

Google what a Palindrome is and compare with what a mirror image is.

Today is a very special occasion -- the date is a palindrome, meaning it is the same when read forwards and backwards.

It is February 2, 2020, or 02/02/2020, in both the MM/DD/YYYY format and the DD/MM/YYYY format. At just after 2 a.m., it was 02:02:20 on 02/02/2020.This is the only time such a date will occur this century.

The previous palindrome date came 909 years ago on 11/11/1111. The next will come in 101 years on 12/12/2121 and after that there will not be another until 03/03/3030.

It's also a palindrome day of the year (33) and there are a palindrome number of days left in the year (333). Quite a unique day!"
