LOL. He probably gave that name to the TV station to see if they'd actually print it on air.

If this dude was smart enough to pull that off, that makes this even funnier.

Yeah, I knew a guy with that name and he went by Michael as well.

And to make matters worse, his sister was named Kerry. Not a great name when you are in elementary school and people make fun of your name by transposing a few of the letters around.

I've mentioned this before on a funny names thread, but this Liberal MLA has the best name in politics.

Using a standard weight font for the first name and a heavy weight font from the same family for the last name is a run of the mill style decision for television news programs. It happens quite frequently and isn't indicative of a photoshopped image.

Not a shop job and not his real name. The newschannel's own website had the video but has since pulled it since realizing they were duped...
