Is it just a southern thing?

I am continually hearing hosts pronounce their "e's" like they are "i's" and I was wondering if this is a regional pronounciation? For example: Demonstration =Dimonstration, Present = Prisint, Temptations = Timptations, etc. Is this a regional thing? I am from up north and we pronounce "e's" like "e's" and not like "i's".
