This was actually picked up by Media Watch in Australia. Ad content keywords disasters never fail to amuse. In the case of Australian driver Peter Brock's death announcement, his association with V8 motorcar races lead to this.

Oh you need the context. The newsrooms have decided to go on with computer controlled cameras. What could possibly go wrong? There were similar issues in Australia a few years ago when the ABC decided to cut costs and use a system called Ignite. Basically it gives five people's jobs to one, making for almost no way to speedily correct any errors as it's garbage in / garbage out and unless your news segments go exactly to script else you have to have a very deft hand to recover. One major issue was with name supers (the titles of who's talking) coming up. The system didn't respond well to having timed cues, so if something broke then everything would slide out of place. Or it would suffer from human error with names being put in the wrong order into the system. Before this you would have a dedicated role for cuing vision, sound, operating cameras and fading in and out of supers. But still some great bloopers come up.

Collateral Damage posted:Took me a moment to spot it, but Also in the news was the annoucement of said MP annoucing his retirement while wearing a bright blue shirt and standing in front of a simlar sandstone wall, which many news outlets simply used the same footage, minus the blurring.

Caught the end of the local news where they were highlighting a tuna tossing competition...basically throw a fish across a field or something. Which resulted in the rather fantastic super where the winner was dubbed "Champion Tosser"
