Journalist here with an update: Things have not improved.
Whaaaaaat!?! They haven't??? 😂😂😂
Fellow journalist here: They've gotten worse
Yeah, I was gunna say true journalism is dead. Time to sell out and make the crap the corporates want you to. Otherwise you are looking at a struggle to live and thrive.
With Chat GPT existing, it's hard to believe they could be anything but worse.
Student journalist here: the current journalists are three ducks in a trenchcoat and Report for America gave me a strongly-worded rejection
Anyone else getting a sick feeling of anxiety in their stomach knowing John is about to find out what happened in the US election in 2016?
As I rewatch these 2 things become obvious to me.
1) John is possibly a mystic who knows the future.
Or
2) John is British and lived through Thatcher, so he saw what was coming for America if we continued to follow her economic plan as Reagan championed all the way to TFG.
the first one is more likely
@@awnnemwndndne lol. True.
I’ve learned you’re easily influenced.
@@viviorko can't take a joke about politics huh? Good luck with that need to be outraged.
@@jackl4laughs I learned you’re a crybaby. I’m not outraged at all.
I think you’re funny.
I have to say that seeing Mike Johnson’s name in this for half a second was a wild jump scare. None of us know who he was, but here he is in a piece from 2016
Where in the segment was he mentioned?

HEY! I am watching this on CZcams because MAX wouldn't let me obsessively rewatch my sad British man.
Mr. Tonga is all I remember from those Olympics
Sadly the days of the news being delivered to your door with real content by a paper boy is a thing of the past. We now have fake news, adjusted stories and a lot of people hating you because your telling them the truth and not what they want to hear. We are in trouble, as mush as social media has given us, a lot has created doubt in everything we believed. John,you have a great way of delivering the news, making people see and understand in a very different way. I have learned so much while almost pissing my pants laughing. You rock !
Lmao, did you actually read the news? It was written at a 5th grade reading level and was always just a long form version of AP or Reuters content. The editors chose what got reported and what didn't.
There were neighborhoods getting fire bombed by police in the US, in the 80s, that never got reported in newspapers at the time.
There has always been fake news
Something about X destroying journalism back in 2016...
25:08
Oh nooo I've been called out but, im using close by hotel WiFi 🙊🙃
26:39 holy shit, you predicted the future
25:09 Well, that hit extra hard now, doesn't it?
Don’t worry. I do sub to MAX (and YT Prem, so enjoy Prem views). And would definitely be watching this over on MAX if the back catalog was available there. The episodes play in proper sequence on Apple TV on MAX, unlike the backwards playlists here. Plus the vid quality.
For people reading this review, it's okay, it's normal to feel lonely sometimes, if you're going through tough times, keep trying, but never give up, I wish you great success in your health, love, and happiness!
11:28 Michael Jace appearance!!
17:18 watching this from not a city is harrowing
17:43 George Santos says what
I am #Investifarted in this show
Holy shit it's mr twichtile from frosty returns
Yellow dress lady sounds like the rubbish you get when consultants give their reports. A lot of hot air that boils down to “fire more people”
Surface level comedy is still funny
I made a playlist in the correct order...
czcams.com/play/PLOpXx5UbYp1vGOEdpIoL9FiWQuExZzAOg.html
Idk why they did it backwards 🙄
mtfkr only had one job, upload in chronological order...
@@ltihaompson i think they just upload all the videos at the same time and some of them finish uploading fully before others so it ends up in a random order
@@deadnotsleeping For whatever reason they did it, IT'S STUPID!
17:16 well... he wasnt wrong.
Not to plug another video, John.
But Some More News recently did a video some of the many problems of the Olympics.
Sad to see how much it can negatively impact the folks living there at the expense of the wealthy, John.
Sadlympics, John. Sadlympics.

CHORP
Why hello fellow Some More News fan
Cody's Showdy makes a wonderful companion piece to Last Week Tonight
wait, this Oliver show isn't called CHORP ?
Nyes
Why are some ppl replicating the smell of my sisters bloody stool as a child? Seems illegal.
Hope I'm wrong
Which is why ill have no choice but to sue if i keep getting treated like an owned dog. My guess is im owed billions
Giselle had to quit so she could cheat on Tom duhhhh
Sounds like newspapers were overcharging for print ads. Web ads allow the purchaser to track how many people actually purchase directly due to the ad. People have never been as easily convinced as ad companies told their customers.
If they were, we'd have seen more ads for advertizing.
Should i call my mom or remind everyone how theyve owed me tons if money for years now. I think ill do this tto show wjat they did to us for a decade.
Zero interest in toxic attachments to my family that led to this to begin with. I'll be reclaiming my existence and a WE I agree to and moving on with scholars and lawyers. Expect a plan along those lines for ppl who don't want to be sued and who want to go forward with me and my values
The Elliot vince situation was designed to normalize this and that needed toget addressed sooner. Really disturbing and misogynistic
And could result in me being physically harmed or murdered bc of known gender differences in temperament
I should be witj lawyers amd scholars not a bunch of ppl obsessed woth ped garbage amd who harass wonen calling it out
A decade
Let's face it, no one has covered an Olympics well since Leni Riefenstahl in 1936.
First!
Geez... just because a computer does it, that doesn't make it AI. It's an algorithm. It's not AI. Artificial, maybe. Intelligent? Not. Artificial Intelligence does not exist. Stop talking like it does.
What's the difference? How many algoritms does it take to make intelligence? If they make a computer that's smarter than you, is it still not AI?
@@Uruz2012 The difference is they are a very long way away from that.
Could perhaps they not be uploaded at the same exact time and clog my subscription list? It's great to have access, but just space them out to a daily pace instead
You actually use your subscription list?
You want HBO to change how it operates so you dont have to scroll a bit? Like, 3-4 finger sweeps is _too much?_
I hate these data dumps from these corporate establishment mouthpiece press guys.
Just annoying.
Nothing funny or new
Go away then? 🤷♀️
John personally uploaded each and every one of these while on a bender after coming to terms with watching history repeat itself.
Then why are you subscribed? Following a channel doesn’t happen by accident.
