They're Getting Crazier By The Second

Wingnut Mark Krikorian for example:

Deferring to people’s own pronunciation of their names should obviously be our first inclination, but there ought to be limits. Putting the emphasis on the final syllable of Sotomayor is unnatural in English (which is why the president stopped doing it after the first time at his press conference), unlike my correspondent’s simple preference for a monophthong over a diphthong, and insisting on an unnatural pronunciation is something we shouldn’t be giving in to.

As a guy with a frequently mispronounced last name, Mr. Kockdorkyman can suck it. Yeah, that's how I choose to write his last name. Writing it correctly is something I shouldn't be giving in to.
