Summary
This video contains a paid promotion spot for Virtual Shield in the beginning of the podcast.
A video is going viral depicting various news anchors reading the same script. The Video is creepy as you hear the same lines recited in unison by dozens of anchors. But the video omits important parts of the script.
Local news reading a generic script is not new. Conan O'Brien has been highlighting this for years. So why now? Why are people now highlighting this practice. What are they not telling us?
