Most Attractive Accent? The Southern Drawl, Y'All

DAVID GREENE, HOST:

Good morning, y'all. I'm David Greene, with some poll results. The dating site Cupid.com has released a survey rating regional accents. Most attractive accent in North America: The Southern Drawl.

To me, the glaring omission: Yinz in downtown Pittsburgh.
