Battle Of The News Headlines - now on YouTube
Posted: 18 February 2009 at 08:02:19
A couple weeks ago, Glenn Beck started doing a new bit on his radio program: "Battle Of The News Headlines" where he takes news headlines of the day about either Barack Obama or John McCain and pits them against one another. Then, after four or five of these headlines are revealed for each candidate, a winner is declared.
I found this to be hilarious and an ingenious way to demonstrate just how ridiculously biased (twiterpated, obsessed, etc.) the mainstream media is with B.O.
After hearing Glenn do this 3-4 minute bit for a couple of days, I came up with the idea of making some YouTube videos to go along with the audio of his show. And now, I've created video to go along with all eight of the "battles" aired so far. Enjoy.
- Battle #1 (16 July)
- Battle #2 (17 July)
- Battle #3 (18 July)
- Battle #4 (21 July)
- Battle #5 (22 July)
- Battle #6 (23 July)
- Battle #7 (24 July)
- Battle #8 (25 July)
On another note, while I'm editing these videos using a Windows application, I'm using open source software on Linux to edit the audio, create the graphic elements used in the video, and transcoding the video in preparation for upload to YouTube.
