Local News Chyron Accidentally Touts Interview with ‘Halle Berry’

And one local TV station is already off to a bumpy start, with a pretty jarring chyron mistake on New Year’s day, interviewing people about a new plastic bag in Los Angeles, including someone who was accidentally identified as actress Halle Berry.

So they either made a mistake or that’s some pretty insane character work going on right there.
