Speaking of the pronunciation, it's really funny how they often make mistakes on TV when pronouncing non-English surnames. For example, Genovese is pronounced /genoveze/ , but they not only pronounce it as /genovez
I/, but even as
/genovi:z/ 
Also, in an old newspaper article I read they mistook Paul Sciacca's name THREE times: Sciacci, Sciaccia and Sciaaccia I think.
