My first reaction to the clip was that it was a parody. Then when I realized it had really aired in a sincere news story, I wondered if no one at the station had ever seen Porky’s (which had lots of jokes based on paging names that when said out loud were questionable i.e. Mike Hunt.) They certainly never saw this SNL skit: [Weird Terrorist Names - YouTube](Weird Terrorist Names - YouTube) Or stood with my DH when he says his name is Phil McCracken when he orders at Starbucks.

Really, who didn’t pick up on the name issue the first time you saw the screenshot? That is absolutely on the anchor and her producer.
