This can not be real. Did you take the screen shot or find it online?
OK, it's legit. What a bunch of suckers.
Not fake, just gullible Californians.

Its all over the social media networks, including Reddit.
There's been an apology (link) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=L84TJ80l6Qg), too.
HaHa!
Idiots.
So much for fact checking. :D

Looks like something my father would mass-mail/spam thinking it's true -- no matter how often I've begged him (1) fact-check first, (2) if it looks too good/bad to be true, it ain't, and (3) quit sending me this junk.

I don't often laugh to the point of tears. Thanks for posting
One intern who can kiss any thoughts of a government career goodbye...unless he/she goes into politics where facts are never quite...well...facts.
Asiana: NTSB admits intern confirmed racist pilot names

You just know that if a certain news outlet perceived to be Right of extreme Left would have done this, they would have burned the building down.

So news outlets just regurgitate whatever they're fed from "official" sources?
And here I thought the press was a check on government power rather than propaganda arm...
:munchin
Every time I see that I laugh...it is so stupid it's funny...especially the idiot that could read that with a straight face and not get it.
The supreme High School High wedgy.
BEST.NEWS.REPORT.EVER
Sum Ting Wong, Wi Tu Lo, Ho Lee Fuk and Bang Ding Ow should sue for libel...
...lets not be cryptic about it, San Freaksisco reports it and its an accident by an unsuspecting reporter based on a false report by the governmnet. Fox news would have been fined a bazillion dollars by the FCC, the ACLU would already be releasing the details in the pending lawsuit, and the usual group of talking heads would already be set up outside of the NTSB interns house demanding his head on a stick.
...but this is San Freaksisco so it is all fixed with an "oops-our bad"

Is KTVU a known liberal news source? They are in California, but they're also a FOX affiliate.

As heavily Asian as San Fran (they hate being called this) you'd think someone would have applied critical thinking. The TV station is getting sued by Asiana BTW.

If anyone called me to confirm this I would have said yes it's true. My defense would be that no one could possibly ask that question with a straight face.

Funny as hell until some reporter wants to sell some outrage.
Apparently none of the news staff grew up with jokes about Mike Hunt, Hugh Johnson, or those cousins Hugh Fitzpatrick and Patrick Fitzhugh.

We had a kid in my HS (two classes my junior) names Mike Hunt.
Was a bit of a troublemaker and called down to the office quite a bit. When ever he was called down there over the P.A., the corresponding giggles echoed throughout the building. It was awhile before the facility caught on and started referring to Mr. Hunt as Michael.
Reminded me of this one...

All the guys previously mentioned must have known Mike Hunt's cousin Richard...Richard Hurtz, from Holden, MA
AKA Dick Hurtz from Holden.
;)
I hear Dick was related by marriage to the Bagg twins...Douche and Duffle.
Ah...back in 5th grade, again....
...just don't put this shit on a reporter's Teleprompter...or they will do what most TV news folks apparently do best these days...simply read a script.

Too bad the anchor didn't say it in Ron Burgundy's voice. That would have made it perfect. :D

Looks like KTVU's logo. I wonder if they've ever been Baba Buied? :confused:
