Needless to say: my favorite part about American media’s coverage of Sonia Sotomayor’s appointment to the Supreme Court is that very few people seem to get her name right. I mean: not even the L.A. Times, hailing from a city that is, like, 105% Hispanic.
Sotomayer? Sotomoyer? Sotamayor? Sotameyer? The possibilities seem endless (just like Chávez’ anniversary radio show)

The following story is from the Kansas City Star, which we cannot forgive, especially now that Latinos are starting to take over the place.
at least the right pronunciation seems to be coming around
KC star is a McClatchy owned paper which means it turned off the computer to proof read copy. Because it would save a dime.
And I think if you look harder its 4 Kansas counties that have Hipanic/Latino Majority.
