Tucker Carlson's 'Very Odd' Pronunciation Of 'Ottawa' Has People In Stitches

I have never heard anyone mispronounce "Ottawa" the way @TuckerCarlson does here. Very odd. pic.twitter.com/8nHEqEJsJk

As a city councillor in A-Ta-Wa... Proud to be in the best city in North America, even if it is actually pronounced Ottawa.

Given how Tucker Carlson pronounces ‘Ottawa’ I’m going to bet he pronounces ‘Calgary’ like it’s two guys named Cal and Gary. pic.twitter.com/HgUmi93GT9

If you're ever experiencing impostor syndrome, remember how confident Tucker Carlson was when he pronounced the word Ottawa.

Tucker Carlson being ignorant of how to pronounce Ottawa and, rather than taking two-seconds to learn, simply making it up and pretending that's the way it is, is no different from how he approaches and delivers every other bit of info on his show.

Mispronunciation of Canada's capital city aside, I love how Tucker Carlson refers to it as "a place called" Ottawa as if it's some remote kingdom that exists in some faraway realm that you can only get to on the back of a luck dragon or something.

Have I been pronouncing Ottawa wrong or is Tucker Carlson a bigger moron than I thought pic.twitter.com/j1rhWOrO5r

I just heard Tucker Carlson pronounce "Ottawa".

My eyes literally bugged out of my head. I despise the guy, but he's not *stupid*.

How has he gone this long without hearing anyone say "Ottawa"?

I did my undergraduate degree at the University of Ottawa. I could not be more offended by the way Tucker Carlson butchers the name of our awesome capital city.. https://t.co/nXNimyuMMi

How the heck did little Tucker Carlson get to this point in his life as a News person - and I stress the word News - without ever learning or hearing the pronunciation of Ottawa-!? Maybe he’s not as Newsish as has been alleged. https://t.co/V8hDUfsflG

Tucker Carlson knows how to pronounce "Ottawa." He's been purposely mispronouncing Kamala Harris' name repeatedly for the last 2 months. Perhaps I'm wrong, but I took this as an attempt to try to play off that with his audience. https://t.co/8KuMkxJMR2 https://t.co/1QVoCWSiPM

Tucker Carlson isn’t THAT dumb.
He knows how to pronounce “Ottawa.”
He’s doing this for effect.
What effect he’s trying to achieve... that’s another matter. https://t.co/ilk7ZPFmRS

How could Tucker Carlson never have heard the word “Ottawa” pronounced? I guess on top of everything else he’s not a hockey fan. https://t.co/wyHs7n3gpF
