I slightly disagree. Some of it seems spot on, but some of it I would associate with a regional American accent - maybe a little more mid-western or southern? Idk, I can't place exactly where. But the ones that drop the "an" and add an "n" sound the beginning of words or drop some vowels doesn't seem like a "normal" one. Also, which of the American accents can be considered the normal one? It totally depends on where you live. Where are you from?
I'm Canadian, I live in Manitoba (prairies).
Most of the TV I watch is (obviously) American, and outside obvious outliers, like a southern drawl or a Boston or Jersey accent, there's definitely an overarching "standard" accent (which is pretty close to mine, by the way), and that chart is pretty accurate.
An exception would be dropping the "a" in the second "again" in "we watched it again and again". That seems wrong to me.
