When Fox News host Sean Hannity introduced Jahi Bakari and his goddaughter, Ladariene McKever, for a segment on former McKinney police officer Eric Casebolt, Hannity had a little trouble with pronunciation, eliciting winces from his guests.
Watch the winces as Hannity begins the segment via Fox News:
Sean was too busy trying to figure out how he was going to try and shred the guests than bothering to show them the respect (and professionalism) of taking care to pronounce their names correctly.
Obscenity Hannity butchers the truth on an unfailing, regular basis–so mispronouncing a surname is a petty infraction hardly worth mentioning.
why can’t we all be Irish? those Welsh names don’t have enough vowels anyway.
Why did these poor people even bother going on his show? Apparently (I hope) they didn’t know what an asshole he is.
Probably a very sweet producer asked them very nicely.
