Via: the-irascible-harry-krishner • 11 years ago • 8 commentsAn Oakland TV station was apparently duped into giving racist, incorrect names for the pilots of the Boeing 777 that crash landed at a San Francisco airport on Saturday.
Anchor Tori Campbell of KTVU said on the air Friday that the Asiana jet crew, flying from Seoul, consisted of "Captain Sum Ting Wong," "Wi Tu Lo," "Ho Lee Fuk," and "Bang Ding Ow."
"The NTSB has confirmed these are the names of the pilots on board Flight 214 when it crashed," Campbell said during the noon report. "We are working to determine what roles each of them played during the landing on Saturday."
The station later apologized with Campbell saying on the air: "These names were not accurate despite an NTSB official confirming them this morning. We apologize for this error."
"acted outside the scope of his authority"....
Well, that's one way to put it...
Reading is fundamental.
LMAO. Best laugh of the week...
But I have to tell you... that I used to eat in a Chinese restaurant in NYC's Chinatown, and it's name was Hung Tso Lo. No joke.. that's for real.
Really. This is just funny. I can't help but laugh. Sorry. Snicker. There is a Chinese Restaurant here in town named the *snicker* Ho Ho Palace. Maybe it's a restaurant, I don't know. I am afeared to go in there. We have a Pea Wea (not sure about the spelling) House here, too. I ain't going in there, either. Do they serve pee wees? Yikes.
OK, you guys. Let's get serious. Check this web page out. If you don't end up having trouble with your Pea Wea, there is something wrong with you.
...
Phat Phuk? See? I nearly wet myself.
Hey, Bullwinkle. John and Marla had Phat Phuk last night. *snort*
I hear Fred and John had some good Fook Hing last night. I didn't know they were like that. Golly.
Bully, check your regular e mail, please and thank you.
The Airline and the pilots didn't think is was all that funny. They are considering a law suit.
How could the folks at the TV station not notice? They are idiots.
