Wouldn't put it past Olbermann intentionally mispronouncing us for some immature reason (only slightly kidding)

Olbermann is a gasbag and needs to be sent more than a media guide to get him up to speed....

Wouldn't help. I quit listening to him years ago. Doesn't do his homework, just blathers like most of them.

He is a tool. Shouldn’t be doing tv at all.

The Big Show with Olberman and Patrick was must see TV back in the 90’s.

Ultimate a-hole. The moment he pops up on my TV I change the channel. I can't believe ESPN brought him back from the dead.

He's outdated, but still one of the most professional commentators in the business.

App has been in headlines long enough to where everyone should know proper pronunciation. Especially those on the sports channels

You are assuming that he can read?

How much of the anti-Olbermann is his politics and how much the fact he did not pronounce our name correctly?
This is my very generic signature added to each post.

His politics just validate what the rest of his commentary already tells me, he can only regurgitate what others are saying, right wrong or indifferent.

He's a sensationalist, in that he does/says things to get a reaction. I would not at all be surprised if he intentionally mispronounced Appalachian on purpose, simply to get a rise. He's from the Jerry Jones school of publicity - any is good.

I liked him on SportsCenter in the 90s but he has become too much of a sensationalist and his politics are so messed up. I don't watch him anymore either. Not saying our name correctly is either trying to be insulting or just plain stupid and not an informed journalist.
