    Just saw this, thought it was hilarious, figured people might get a kick out of it.

    <object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/YtGSXMuWMR4&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/YtGSXMuWMR4&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>

    BRILLIANT! :grin:

    I think he could have added "then the reporter will say his name and that he is reporting from the place where he's standing even though we knew it beforehand. End report." :cool: Nice one, nonetheless.

    you are right but you forgot they say the name of the channel too, even when everybody knows what channel are you seeing, and the reporter have a logo of the channel on the mic.

    so is:
    - name of the reporter
    - place where he/she is reporting
    - name of the channel

    thats how every reporter finish the segment.

    As someone who takes the televised news very seriously, I don't find this the least bit funny. I have spent countless hours in my youth watching both local and national news, and these people work thankless hours trying to inform the general public. I guess its also cool to mock pastors and other holy men as well.
