> However, the news lady pronounced it Angle (as in, 90º) - uh.
That's pretty much sounds right to me except you must of not heard the last '-la' or the news reader lopped it off ... so you get something like 'ahn-gl-la mer-cle'. The English news readers I've heard say it always manage a pretty close pronunciation rather than just resorting to the English name.
But many in Germany know her as 'Angie' (like the song yes), which Germans pronouce more like 'Ängie'.
