In the aftermath of the Asiana Flight 214 crash at SFO last week, the media was in full hue and cry to see who could "out scoop" the others. A local independent TV station, KTVU, somehow obtained the names of the four pilots of the aircraft. They supposedly cleared the names with the NTSB, but a little more use of common sense, including a simple reading of the names, would have indicated something was wrong (Sum Ting Wong!).

The crash was caused by the pilot looking at a picture on his cell phone of his buddy "Wun Hung Dong"
