Charlie Brooker Spoofs The News Video | Newswipe Mimics Every Modern News Report

33 sec read

Charlie Brooker has a knack of hitting the nail on the head with intense accuracy. Whether he’s critiquing the news, current affairs, television, society, or video games, he tells it like it is in an insightful and highly amusing manner.

This video show Brooker demonstrating how every news report looks and feels these days. And it’s spot-on, although I hadn’t ever thought about it while watching the actual news. It takes a genius like Brooker to point it out to me.

There are a couple of genius lines – “Ignoring all the pricks milling around him like he’s gliding through the fucking Matrix,” – but it’s the pointless vox pops about pointless vox pops which had me howling with laughter.

This segment is from Charlie Brooker’s Newswipe, which is currently enjoying its second series on BBC4, and it’s well worth watching. Not only is it entertaining and funny, it’s informative as well. What more could you ask for?
