News journalists are now just performing monkeys,as demonstrated in the video.
If they know the current news issues (and they should, since they seem to repeat only about three news items every 15 minutes or less) then surely they could provide a concise summary?
IMO the video also demonstrates why rolling news channels like News24 are a waste of bandwidth, especially in an age when most of their target audience carry 3g phones that could be used to inform them more effectively.

The BBC? I guess this was their April Fools Day prank?
