Video news online

Post by anarky »

Y'know something that bugs me? When I click on an online news article, and it's fucking video.

Worse, they usually have ads at the beginning you can't skip past.

I could've read the goddamned article before the ad is over. Fucking pandering to putzes who can't fucking read. People who are too lazy to read aren't reading news, you stupid fucknuts.

I hate when the people on the news just read the fucking newspaper to you. usually it's the fucknuts on the radio. But back in Iowa, I swear to god, there was 80+year old dickbag that had apparently been the newscaster for decades and everyone loved him to death, was doing the morning news and I was reading the paper, eating breakfast and kinda listening to him in the background. And he was reading the news article that I had JUST read seconds before.

Seriously? What kind of lazy fuck plaigarizes like that with no repercussions?
