How awkward and awesome is this? WCCO, a local Minnesota news station, falsely reported that a Chinatown market was selling dog meat. The problem was that the reporter confused what the Chinese employee said as “dog” instead of “duck.” After the story aired, “New York state inspectors raided the Dak Cheong Meat Market and didn’t find one bit of proof that they were selling dog meat. Chao Fang, an employee at the market, talked to the Post, which somehow correctly understood what he said and quoted him accurately.” The kicker? Fang also said, “‘How could we sell dog meat? This isn’t China. This isn’t Korea.'” Oh snap! But he has a point. Get it straight, journalists. Chinese people eat CATS.
