That is a cringing moment. I hope they are more careful in the future.

I'm wondering how he could even read it wrong, unless they listed the runner-up first on the card and Steve didn't look at the title before reading the name?

This should be one of those "you only had ONE job" memes. I actually feel sorry for Steve, when I make a mistake at work it's not broadcast to millions of people.

He's a genuinely funny guy, I feel for him. We all make mistakes.

Somebody made a good point in some comments on the article. If this hadn't happened, I probably wouldn't even have known the pageant was on. Most it's been talked about in years!
I feel bad for both Mr. Harvey and Miss Columbia. While I think pageants are kind of silly, I'm sure it meant a lot to her.

It's already all over Facebook. Didn't even know that the pageant is going on. Must've been lame and all since The Donald kept on campaigning

I'm wondering if he was set up by the peeps who do the results card or teleprompter. He's a seasoned announcer. Miss Columbia ended up with the most attention. Both women were dissed in some way.
I have seen this happen on my local new channel. The new person usually gets it. Also, they are very bad spellers for the tag lines.

I don't agree with a shared crown. The winner is the winner. You dont' take away the winner's win because someone blurted out the wrong result. This was all very unfortunate and embarrassing but it isn't the end of the world. Things happen. People are human. Oh well. Apologize and move on and let the winner have her victory.

The winner takes all. It adds up. Otherwise they wouldn't do it.

I put beauty pageants on a par with sporting events in terms of importance - low to none. They're entertaining to those who are interested, but aren't critical to the functioning of the world. Medicine, science, teaching, etc., are way more important in my mind, and people in those fields are the ones that should be held up as positive role models more so than entertainers. My opinion only, ymmv.

In discussing the wrong winner issue, a fellow tennis player brought up that in a recent tournament the winner of the most games lost because they lost to the other team that was coming in 2nd. The 2nd place team had not won as many games. Gipped. Not the first time in the tennis realm.
