The small symbols for bookmarks in the list does not show the right web page symbol? How can I get this right?

I have a lot of short cuts to web pages in the list just under the web address. The symbol showing should be that of the web page but for some of the links the symbol shows the wrong symbol. For example it could be that CNN has the symbol of BBC (I don't have this exact problem but just as an example).

I can't go into much detail, but recreating the bookmarks (deleting the old ones) that have problems should fix the issue.
