World's Most Generic News Report | Charlie Brooker

[faith808girl]

i cant believe someone would dislike this video... Well, atleast I know that there are only 6 idiots that watched this.

[masluxx]

Lol

[theymusthatetesla]

Just like the Day Today....exactly, in fact.

[Nzdrovya4life]

I like the pipe at a window. Awesome.

[keetner]

The Dowdy Man in the Kitchen was my favourite...

[renoo27]

6 people were beheaded by a laser beam.

[TheJovanist]

".....like he's gliding through the fucking matrix.." BOMB LMAO

[SullenDreamer]

omg this is soo fucking true!! lol

haha ABC Good Morning America is just like this. it's insane!! I go crazy if I see it on the TV, i have to turn it off immediately!

[RaveNeveRaven]

6 people are dowdy men in kitchens

[MetroidMadness]

"And this is a comment quoting something from the video as if everyone else who watched this video had missed it and I'm the only one with the sense of humor to understand it while it's happening."

[cufflink44]

@MetroidMadness Don't be such a cynic. Comments like this generally mean nothing more than: "I found this particularly funny / significant / interesting / absurd . . . etc., and maybe you did too." What's wrong with that?

[FreemanPontifex]

@cufflink44 Dude, you missed the fuck out of the point.

[obglobgablob]

@FreemanPontifex

Cut him some slack, first. He could be retarded for all you know.

[jbateman01gmail]

@LuminescentPictures they were both ripoffs, the idea of explaining something by generics has happened for years. it is just now more accessible

[GenericVlogger28]

This isn't as generic as my blogs! Check out my channel. If you don't, may a thousand zombie children take over your village.

[LuminescentPictures]

Dude get over it, I made that comment like last year, and made a retraction after the first guy pointed out my error. I manned up, now move on... way to keep up with current events bud...

[MrJoviun]

@LuminescentPictures you got fucking owned

[VineFynn]

dowdy kitchen man ftw

[tyu3456]

5 people were lighthouse keepers that were unfortunately beheaded by a laser beam

[Itsnattatooma]

I want to hear more about that poor lighthouse keeper!

[anotherlogan]

The overweight people from the neck down is a personal favorite.

[TheMilkDaddy]

5 people work for Mainstream Media in the US

[spazmodicrapealarm]

He may not have a knighthood yet ,but I think he is well worthy of the title Sir

[clamburgler]

Why is it so common that the highest rated comment is just a quote from the video?

[kangaroovision]

@clamburgler

Because that's the part that everyone liked and when they hear it again, they chuckle and give it a thumbs up.

[ZeroZiat]

@clamburgler People like that quote.

[griffMcTall]

Haha it's sooooo true.

[justanotherZOE]

ahhhh so hilariously genius and amazing

[nadasansergiudj]

"...like he's gliding through the fuckin' matrix." :))))

[sandypineman]

And the generic thing about how x amount of people pressed the dislike button, but I think their (insert derogatory comment here).

[thomdz]

this is actually amazing

[IBurningStar]

I Stumble across this video at least once a month and I watch it all the way through every single time. And I love every last fucking moment of it.

[jefferlew]

This is awesome on a great level!!!

[Tobycantplay]

@KarelBata

I also would like to point out that this one is better and funnier

[anzelak]

@LuminescentPictures

You stupid retard.

[Conezolio]

This IS NEWS! I am sooooooooooo informed now.

[ProLogikalTao]

@LuminescentPictures You mean people are influenced by other people? Call the Supreme Court, we have the trial of the century on our hands!!!

[evilnarc]

the onion did it better

[LuminescentPictures]

@KarelBata

@KarelBata AAhhh... you got me... Serves me right for acting on a knee jerk reaction. I actually hate people who rip off Ideas from one another. I had just seen Charlies "Report" second, and our guys' tailor first and was rooting for our guys! Oh how betrayed I feel. My hats off to the originator.

PEACE OUT!!!

Chad Rock

[EagleXC13]

@KarelBata I'm pretty sure the onion news network started this kind of shit yearsssss ago.

[04whim]

@LuminescentPictures They're only similar in concept and this one's funnier... Judging by the way that your comment was written; good to see patriotism is still alive [/sarcasm]

Judging by the way my comment was written; Bad to see assholes are still allowed on the internet, am I right?

[LuminescentPictures]

@04whim

Wow there was a lot of heat there... Anyway I already gave it up... look at my reply to KarelBata.

How about some world peace next time!

C...

[KarelBata]

@LuminescentPictures No probs here.

Talking about people ripping each other off - a few months ago I put up a video mash-up of what would happen if Sid Vicious auditioned for the X-Factor. It's proving popular, which is gratifying. So populkar some guy's now downloaded it, removed my name, and is passing it off as his own!

Unbelievable. You want the link? Go post some well deserved abuse..?

[04whim]

@LuminescentPictures XD sorry, bad day yesterday, man periods and all that :P Let us pave our path to world peace, one slab of butter at a time :D

[thechaosofpeace]

this is one of the most useful videos i've ever seen

[treebee69]

[afrojayjay]

She is fucking gorgeous.

[NNomad]

I wonder if the two people who marked this down as "dislike" are Rory Cellan-Jones and Hugh Pym...

[MikePhilippens]

I'm with Mr.QuickBone.

[NakedWombat666]

Perfection. Now I can skip the "news."

[superhazar]

That is what onion News is based on and doing it for years,...

[Schpudd]

@superhazar if youre unfamiliar with charlie brooker he does a lot of media satire, not just the news

[snakevillefilms]

@superhazar erm...isnt onion news based off of The Day Today and Brass Eye, or am i mixing onion news with The Onion

[superhazar]

@snakevillefilms yep. I am taking about The Onion..

[darknessbobe]

I'm surprised this isn't from the onion. Great work!

[DustinDosh]

A regents treat lol.The king of wordplay.

[lovelissimee]

Oh my gosh the Regent Street bit is so brilliant.

[xRawlins]

I just want the Britons to know that this shit isn't confined to your neck of the woods. This was, shot from shot, every news program in America.

[myironlungca]

so funny.

[asantos]

brilliant!

[lordtalon69]

This reminds me of "some fucking bullshit happening somewhere" video by the onion :).

[Qubelink]

Smart!!!

[IronicSentiment]

Well done.

[destined1415]

Cleverness. This video contains it.

[SnowyCamel]

[Blackicye]

This is one of the funniest clips I've seen so far.

[HoagieTheGreat]

"Ignoring all the pricks milling around him like he's gliding through the fucking Matrix" ha ha that cracked me up.

[maribell99]

This is hysterical!  And so freaking true!

[chifylube]

Yeah, I think this is only correct with British news. American news is even more boring and generic.

[evansremenik]

cómo hacer una nota para TV, paso a paso

[indycoltssbxli]

Brilliant. Just bloody brilliant.

[coachmattman]

Someone had to say it. This is great!

[axhfan]

If you like this check out the literal videos for "arms wide open" and "turn around bright eyes"

[bongchi]

LIke he's gliding through the FUCKING Matrix!!

LMFAO!!

[TheDailyVinyl]

Well done. Perfect. TheDailyVinyl loves it and is sharing this video!!!!

[naordie]

emlanie, that is how it is taught!

This is why the average voter is so ill-informed. And why, they voted for the latest schmuk turned celeb that gives a good sound bite!

[cloudberry121]

Funny and very sharp!

[emlanie]

Brilliant! This is how news should be taught in college.

[00iCon]

That graph is inaccurate!!!!

[Zefrem23]

"It's just news. It's just news"

[ajthib]

Awesome. That guy was on the money

[wbell539]

Now I don't need to watch the news.

[ShateredReality]

so funny and so true, its why i dont watch the news =P

[Trashbinder]

One of the genuinely funny people on British telly. He also writes his own material.

[plumbersteve]

I'm gonna hafta alert my local media about this story. I sure didn't see it on the ten o'clock.

[NalanaDarkling]

Brilliant!

[Lerxst3333]

hahaha ROFL - love that British Humour!

[WoolyWoolwine83]

...and this is a lighthouse keeper being beheaded by a laser beam.

[weeniebobeenie]

SO GOOD

[DikVaniKoek]

hmm... lets think about that one - probably since people still watch it!

[MrQuickBone]

Hilarious. "And ignoring all the pricks milling around him like he's gliding through the fucking matrix."

[Naenia2]

stumbled! funny as hell!

[tlow0678]

[lopezp]

[AbigaleNunevHoltz]

Bahaha "news wipe"

[corie444]

"he unfortunately was boring" :( hahaha i love British accents most of all!!!!!!

[sunshineandmuffins]

So much love for this.

[suckithardnfast]

Just about every news report is like this. I wonder why they all follow the same formula.

[Francis56B]

It'll be part of the one day 'how to be a TV reporter' course they follow.

[amxrtdket]

lol yah there all produced the same. It's like an overplayed melody.

[cameloxen]

This is effing epic. So damn true!
