I have the following as input

"Imus sparked controversy on his WABC radio show yesterday when talking with sportscaster Warner Wolf about the arrest of suspended Dallas Cowboys cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones."

I expected the name "Warner Wolf" a sportscaster to be extracted and it was not.  It is not clear to me why the name was not identified. 

 Thank you,

You're right - it should have. There's something in the text that isn't giving Calais enough context to identify it as a name. We'll pass this along to the NLP team.

Thanks for getting back. As I look at the formatting I see I had some interesting (large) fonts in my original post. That was not intentional I thought it was only one font.
