I am Astrud Q. Malvar, 18 years old, a viewer of Wheel of Fortune. I am offended by the June 27 episode of Wheel of Fortune. When a contestant was given the chance to solve the puzzle, there was an obvious injustice when the show officials did not consider her answer just because the contestant mispronounced U as O. The word was NUMERO, and instead the contestant said NOMERO. This is a sort of regional discrimination. The fact that the letter U was already in the board when the contestant answered clearly showed that the contestant knew the word NUMERO and obviously had a problem with her pronunciation of the letters U and O. It is common knowledge that in the Visayan region, the mispronunciation of these letters are very common and I think if this becomes a hindrance to a person's success then it is UNFAIR. give some consideration. this is not a quiz bee nor a communication skills exam.
