Charlie Brooker's How to Report the News - Newswipe - BBC Four

I got shown this in my media course as kind of a template for a project.

Thanks for posting this. I now have a degree in telecommunications.

Have no idea why this popped into my head today…probably the new Black Mirror episodes i still haven’t watched.

Anyway, I haven’t taken any news programs (especially BBC news) seriously, since I saw this over a decade ago. Frighteningly insightful.

The greatest piece of content EVER releseased by BBC! 👏👏👏

I am a University Professor (teach media literacy) and yeah we share this with students... Its accurate and funny.... it shows the formula.

This man created Black Mirror. I'm stunned.

Charlie Brooker, the writer of Black Mirror, an incredible insightful mind

Just saw this on reddit, hilarious

I love how it’s the BBC posting this and that my media production teacher showed us this video in our journalism unit.

so glad I found out about this guy! he's hilarious and original

"A series of lazy and pointless vox pops" - Bahahaha!

Bwa-ha-ha-ha. LOL is overused, but no joke, I'm laughing out loud here. This is genius. Monty Python couldn't have done it any better.

this dude always makes quality material

It's just news.

The fact that this is still relevant 12 years later in 2022, means that news media really hasn't evolved in that time.

Absolutely spot on !

I so miss Newswipe. It needs to return.

I love Black Mirror, but I regret that it means we get a lot less of Charlie Brooker doing stuff like this.

anyone else here from ilc?

🧑‍💻📝

We covered that... Dark skinned people have always been in UK :)

and GV footage from as near to broadcasting house as we're too lazy to go else where

forgot to mention using library GVs for when the director/cameraman spent to long at lunch to get the shots, oh and crap archive clip that looks so out of place because they dont want to pay for a better one

Bwahahaha! I feel this is a "How To Do a Nightly News Story - For Dummies" lol

He's got it down to a t. It so obvious I didn't notice it till he placed it in front of me. We're a bunch of losers for putting up with this anodyne crud.

Anyone else here in 2022?

12 years on this is still very accurate

This took me years to find again!

2022 baby

Haaaa! This is so well done.

This is so on point! Hahaha

"I hate these sound-bites!"

Legend

👍👍👍

Lmfaooo

This is gold lol

How these two evil people look in the mirror every morning, I ll never understand👺👹 |

lol

I saw this years ago. Just now my wife was watching some news story and wondering why it was showing meaningless visuals and I was able to find this video again and show it to her.

This is done so perfectly it’s ridiculous.

If you have a friend that is constantly overwhelmed by the news, send him/her/it this video 🥰

This was actually shown to us in a journalism class as an example of how to format a news package. Still refer to it from time to time lol

This is a comment from someone who doesn't understand how time works and feels the need to ask if anyone is watching this video in the current year.

This is a classic.

God save the queen

hasn't changed 11 years later 🤣

Blm.

Dowdy Kitchen Man deserved a bit more airtime
