Charlie Brooker - How To Report The News

Clip is 2 minutes long approx.

Brooker is a columnist with The Guardian (UK).

"It starts here with a lacklustre establishing shot of a significant location," is the first sentence of Brooker's spoof news report for BBC Four's Newswipe showing, of course, no significant location but some random dirt-brownish looking skyscrapers in the London Docklands.
Brooker is hilariously ripping apart the formula of how a standard news piece is put together piece by piece, so precisely that from now on every journalism student will have to watch this as a training film.
