The lady anchor pauses for a split second as she is trying to pronounce Ho Lee Fuk, to make sure she pronounces the last name to not sound like "F*ck".
I think at that point, she realized they had been punked. She went ahead and pronounced the 4th name anyways.
Clueless in San Fran....
actually to get a jump on hot topics the news channels start setting up screens prior to release, then all they need to (normally) do is to enter the names prior to showing on the news. In this case, some joker set up the screen with the supposedly "funny" names but then some idiot then thought that these were the real names and they tried to "scoop" the other channels by releasing the names.
I have seen these before, in Hawaii some clown at a TV station had set up the screens with "something something", "another something", etc. and another idiot then put it on the news. The newscasters quickly caught it and explained the pre editing, but I guess that with asian names the SF station didn't know that those weren't the actual names but joke names.
