can not remember what its called

The man he sat down quickly.
One of the Fox news anchors makes this grammatical error over and over and it is driving me crazy. I can not remember what it is called.

Using a subject [The man] followed by a pronoun [he] is known either as "double subject" or "left dislocation" (the latter more obvious where there's a comma between the subject and the pronoun).
