PEOPLE Asks Kamala About Jerks Who 'Mockingly Mispronounce' Her First Name

People magazine has fiercely avoided reporting on the Trumps at all, but back at the end of August, they devoted two gushy pages to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Now, as Election Day is almost here, People published another gushy interview with Harris, and her husband Douglas Emhoff (who mostly sits quietly).

The headline was "RACING TO MAKE HISTORY: The vice presidential candidate and her husband open up about campaigning mid-pandemic and aiming to break the glass ceiling three times over: Electing America's first black, Indian-American woman as veep."

There's also a video on YouTube, so it's fascinating to see how People edits the questions, and the answers. There's no disclosure to the reader that it's been, well, "cleaned up." But it should be presumed. What's odd is when Fox News names are tossed in. Take this question from the magazine's political reporter Sandra Sobieraj Westfall:

Senator Harris, what does it say to you when someone like Georgia's Sen. David Perdue or Tucker Carlson mockingly mispronounces your name?

Except the video shows Westfall never actually mentioned Tucker Carlson:

LOL! Yeah 'come-ah-la' what about the "gushy" 2 page article that some 'jerks' may mock. Looks like hubby was the wiser of the two and mostly kept quiet. The old 'better to be thought a fool than to speak and confirm it' mode. Now, about those ties to hunter and his business deals.................... Guessing peephole magazine didn't want to delve in to that?

“People” has become “Commie People”.

They should move their HQ to North Korea.

I hear it is very “progressive” there...

How about just “KAR-mell-ass” for starters.

[rktman]

I prefer the cackler. Come on man. That ain’t a laugh.

[RightGeek]

My wife refers to her as “Cam Cam”. I refer to her as the siphylitic slut.

Harris “mispronounced” her own name in Cincinnati, where, by the way, she was not certain what city she was in and had to ask before starting her speech.

I've always pronounced her name: "that America hating rabid socialist ho."

Is that not how one says her name?
