I'm watching this "Bimbo" on SportsCenter a minute ago talking about Alex Rodriquez. She's reading a quote and mispronounces the word "Prognosis". Instead of saying Prog-nose-is, she says Prog-nas-is. I mean come on, knowing how to read and pronounce words correctly is your job. It's not a hard word. It comes up all the time when talking about sports injuries. I guess it wasn't as bad when minutes before Jeremy Schaap was talking about Aaron Rodgers being charged with murder. He did correct himself when a producer said something in his ear.

mistakes happen.. reading off a teleprompter probably becomes quite mundane.. but yea you would think pronunciation would be a key learning point when your a presenter.
