California Burning
Friday, 30th September 2005
I tried to send a video grab of this melodramatic graphic on a Fox news report from my Palm Treo but the darn thing never makes it from device to email. So a still it is…
The video is much better – the flames move, making it appear that a good chunk of SoCal is in flames. Fox gets its audience – “news” is 9/10ths entertainment.
UPDATE – think I got the video working. Click link below.
OK short QuickTime video shows how Fox’s graphics make it look like half of California is burning. A friend said her relatives called to find out if she was ok – “It looks like the whole place is burning!” So I’m not the only one who noticed…
