Sum Ting’s Wong All Right: SF News Station Airs Fake Names For Asiana 214 Pilots...
This aired on KTVU on Friday. On the air. Live television.
UPDATE: The National Transportation Safety Board released a
statement Friday evening saying an intern confirmed the pilots’ names to
KTVU. Later it said the intern only confirmed the names, which
“originated at the media outlet.” Scroll below for the official NTSB
statement.
The anchor says “The NTSB has confirmed these are the names of the pilots on board Flight 214 when it crashed.” It’s amazing:
Here’s KTVU’s apology:
In KTVU’s Noon newscast on Friday, July 12th, the station misidentified the pilots involved in the Asiana Airlines crash at SFO.
Prior to air, the names were confirmed by an NTSB official in the
agency’s Washington, D.C. office. Despite that confirmation, KTVU
realized the names that aired were not accurate and issued an apology
later in the newscast.
The correct names of the pilots in the cockpit were Lee Gang-guk and Lee
Jeong-Min. “We sincerely regret the error and took immediate action to
apologize, both in the newscast where the mistake occurred, as well as
on our website and social media sites,” said Tom Raponi, KTVU/KICU Vice
President & General Manager. “Nothing is more important to us than
having the highest level of accuracy and integrity, and we are reviewing
our procedures to ensure this type of error does not happen again.”
