Nice post. Seems like there’s several of those those type of reports in every newscast.

Heh. Post #9 said it best “Encapsulated MSM in a nutshell!” I wonder if it was done by the same british guys who do the “Brasseye” documentaries. They also do a really in-your-face, dead-on parody of the news media. Much better than the silly stuff we have in the USA with Colbert. I think the Brasseye guys got in trouble with pushing the envelope too much. If you've never seen it, here's a clip of two of their fake news shows, one mocking the mainsteam media's reports on animal rights and the other mocking the mainstream media's hysteria about sex offenders that makes people believe every adult male in this country is a molester.

I wish we had these guys in the USA, I'd love to see them parody the media's constant pimping for “moderate” RINOs and bashing conservative officials.
