The news: A nice video on how crazy our media is

Most of you will know how sensationalist the news / media is and how it effects our mood and thinking. But one of the best video's explaining the meat of this issue is this one I saw a few minutes ago.




The English are pretty good at keeping this simple and straight to the point, this is why i like this video so much and this is why it will appeal to most of you.

Not to get off topic but how in the heck did that gunman take out that many people before finally killing himself. The police over there have guns don't they?

Surely credit goes to Charlie Brooker. But I agree, the news is crazy. We're seeing this sort of thing so much these days that we just block it out. If we saw a report about a mass murderer 50 years ago, everyone would be talking about it.

Im not replying to your question but I just wanted to say that that second quote in your signature is very very good. ^^

If it wasn't for the upload I wouldn't be able to see it ^^ so in a sense credit goe's to him although your right most of it will ofcourse go to the creator of the video.

All I did was editting the least pertinant parts of the series out to create one clip.

No credit there.

Brooker gets all the credit, he's a legend.
