‘Uhhhhh Wrong Asian’ CNN Runs Article on Golfer Si Woo Kim Featuring Photo of Golfer Sungjae Im
LINK
Si Woo Kim is a top PGA golfer from South Korea, who on the second day of the Masters tournament was tied for fifth when he hit a snag. Frustrated on the green, he snapped his putter in frustration and had to finish the round using a wood as a putter.
Sungjae Im is a top PGA golfer, also from South Korea, who did not make the cut for the weekend at Augusta, after the top 20 player had a heartbreaker day and quadruple bogey.
Two different stories, two different golfers. On the story about Si Woo Kim, however, CNN sports initially ran the article with a featured photo of Sungjae Im, which was noticed by a lot of people on Twitter and brought to the attention of @CNNSport.

CNN this week ran a story on “chop suey fonts” — a term used in the article and attributed to American historian Paul Shaw — as a form of racism that relies on AAPI stereotypes. A lecture that perhaps the network isn’t in the best position to give.

Watching it live, it was quite amusing. When he jammed the putter into the fringe on a green, he had a great uh oh face. Then, he was seething. Watching him putt w the metal wood was fun and the sucker did very well w it.

Not as bad as “misgendering” someone these days.

They are fake news even when trying to be real news

They're racist towards Asians. Go figure.

Yellow journalism, no surprise.

Honest mistake. I mean, I can't tell them apart either.

They look nothing alike, unless you think all Asians look alike

I enjoy calling out cnn as much as the next guy, but I wouldn't call that racist. They made a mistake.
But I do hope the woke crowd gives them hell for the mistake.

Entities like CNN do not get the luxury of making those kinds of mistakes. Imagine the story they would run if the shoe was on the other foot. Say if Fox News made this “mistake”.
