A local Chicago ABC affiliate issued an apology Monday for replacing Pyeongchang with “P.F. Chang” in a graphic that accompanied a Saturday report on the Olympic Games.
The P.F. Chang graphic was created for a “satirical piece,” which featured a sports anchor and asked viewers to create their own olympic sports, but it was mistakenly inserted into a straight news story broadcasted Saturday, a spokesman for WLS-Ch.7 told the Chicago Tribune.

The Chinese food restaurant chain replied in jest, clarifying that they were not in fact hosting the Olympic games.
Contrary to this broadcast, we’re not hosting the games. https://t.co/3HW694pE4J
