It seems pretty obvious it was a slip of the tongue. They were speculating on who would light the torch, and both Betty Fox and Michael J. Fox were speculated about.

She misspoke and said Michael instead of Terry, and they showed Terry's picture. Then, presumably they were supposed to mention Michael J and had the image ready for that (as he was mentioned later in the segment) and clicked it over a little too soon. That happens all the time in tv news.
