I used to live in the Bay Area and channel 2 KTVU is a real station. This is NOT from The Onion:

It's all over the internets, someone is getting fired this morning!
I love the fact that they are claiming that they confirmed the names with NTSB!!
I thought that the days when I would find something funny in human tragedy were over and I was now too mature for that kind of thing.
I was wrong!

It's a horrible prank and has zero humor in it, BUUUUTTTTTT...
...I admit I chuckled at the reporter reading of the "names" and not even flinching.
EDIT: Actually, if you think about it, this joke has nothing to do with the pilots or even the language/race. Whoever did it was pranking the news station, and that's a good move because it's a good indicator on how informed and informative media outlets can be, even at the local level.
