SNL was ahead of its time...

Regarding the absurd tendency for newscasters to pronounce non-American word and names in their native pronunciation.

SNL had a fantastic skit about this with Jimmy Smits and Jan Hooks in the 80's.

    Thank you. If I have so much as an inkling that Maria Hinajosa is reporting a story, I flip immediately just so I don't have to hear her say, "From Mea-he-ko Ceety, Maria Hinojsa, CNN."
