I think it's just poor research on their part.  You see it all the
time in cable industry publications.  One of my favorites was my
local cable guide's synopsis for "Anna and the King" last year which
talked about "Mr. Yun-Fat".  Of course, Chinese family names are
usually given first, so the actor is "Mr. Chow".  Yun-Fat is his
given name.  Oh well.

Just so you know, it's "AFAIK".
