NPR just called it the former.
I've lived in Louisiana my whole life and only heard it as "too-lane"

I've heard it called Tuh-LANE, with emphasis on the last syllable. Not by anybody from La. though.

Only people I ever hear the stupid "tuh-LANE" pronunciation from are ESPN announcers and anchors.

NPR has a knack for finding pretentious ways to pronounce people and places.

If its "too lane" then why isn't Tulsa pronounced "too sa"?
