OK Susan, pump the brakes a little eh? You can watch it and be absolutely horrified at the treatment of the animals you know?! It's after the fact

I didn't watch Tiger King because I thought everyone it was a massive legend. I also didn't watch Cronenberg's "Crash" because I get a bonk on every time I see a car accident.

By mrJL's logic 'Crash' should have paused every five minutes, cutting to a PSA where a person in a white coat helpfully explained that car crashes are actually bad for you.

I do see the argument that the horrible animal abuse was definitely secondary to the wacky, awfully dressed sociopaths fucking each other over. It was fairly heavily glossed over.

I think my sarcasm has come across as some Mary Whitehouse handbag waving moral indignation. And the caged-life of the animals coming across as fine isn't the facet of the program I think isn't highlighted as bad, I should have made that clear in my reply to @atz. It's obvious and it speaks for itself.
The missed oportunity mentioned in the op ed that I agree with is the lack of challenging the subtler things in that show like breeding animals like that in captivity is the best solution to them facing extinction in the wild. Which some people could easily think is true.

I have done the second example once, couple of years back. I was mortified.

Amused by the video conference embarrassments, expecting a glut. Dark stock photos, meh, how many books do you reckon they sold?

But no doubt somebody will call fæk on the video conference embarrassments

Mainly because it's very odd to be videoing a conference call that is going on.
(Unless they're videoing a replay of a recorded video conference call.)
(The Internet has made me very cynical.)

One of my mates sent round a fake news link purporting to be from the BBC about London underground closing - obviously it was that bloke with the big walloper - another mate passed it on to a few folk he works with at a Swiss international school & unfortunately one of them sent it on to the entire staff list as a PSA without opening it first...

All of the morons watching that show? I’m not saying all of the audience are stupid, but a shit load of them will be. But I guess those dipshits can’t be saved, and especially not by experts as @owl said
