At the weekend a friend of mine suggested that I watch Newswipe, the BBC4 programme presented by Charlie Brooker. The way my friend described it, it sounded like a satirical review at the news media. I like reading Brooker's columns in the Guardian, so I decided to watch an episode on the BBC's iPlayer.
I have to say this programme is brilliant! Anyone with an interest in how the media produces and reports the news should have a look at this show. I've downloaded a clip from last week's episode which I thought was hilarious!
If you want to know how to produce a standard news item, take a look at this clip. It ticks every box!
After watching this clip it makes you realise just how lazy and formulaic so many news reports really are!
