摘要：Learning English through media-printed media such as newspaper printed in English and electronic media such as Radio and Television present in English. In Padang, West Sumatra, Pro News Radio is one of the stations which broadcast an English program. It is named Pro News Today. Most of the listeners are people in West Sumatra who want to learn English. Because many people are hoping much from this program, it is a must to see whether the program is being presented perfectly. Referring to this reason, the writers conducted a project about mispronunciation words that occur by the newsreaders during broadcasting the news. By applying dictionary reference.com the writers find out that they did mispronounce several words during broadcasting, and there were same words which are mispronounced by the two different newsreaders. The writers also did interview to the newsreaders whether they are aware of their mistake or not. From their answer, it can be concluded that they do not realize that they have made the mistake. The writers hope that Pro News Radio gives more attention to the English skill of the newsreaders in English program.
