As Promised

I did promise to post something interesting when i feel that this blog is getting a bit boring. So here it is. This is an incredible viral for Gatorade. The only indication that the viral is for Gatorade is the end shot when the ball girl is sitting down with a bottle of gatorade, very clever indeed. I was hoping there would be more virals like this floating around whilst the olympics was on, but no such luck. Enjoy!

TV 11th August

Us Brits must really be great climbers because here is another news update featuring English Matt Pierce climbing to great height's just to lift up a banner to do something with Tibet. All very well and good Mr Peirce but your stunt received a mere 10 seconds of air time and you were put in a Honk Kong prison for two days. Why not try and do something a bit more creative next time? why not take some tips from 'fathers for justice'?

TV 10th August

Will the Olympics be overshadowed (laterally) by the cities smog? Will this smog effect some Olympic events? i will let you know.

TV 6th August

The human rights protests continue in Beijing. This time an English dude has got involved. Ian Tom is the man in thee picture seen scaling a giant pole to erect a banner with the message 'free tibet'. Mr Tom was later arrested. Well done Mr Tom, you chump!

TV 4th August

16 policemen have been killed in the Chinese city Xinjiang. Terrorists have made constant warnings via TV messages and have now decided to take action. The bomb killed 16 and injured 12. Fortunately these bombings didn't happen in Beijing where crowds are gathering to welcome the olympics. These events again have overshadowed the Olympics and heightened the speculation over the safety of the olympics. These recent events have made me think forward to London 2012. With our city a hight terrorist risk, would the 2012 Olympics make us a prime target for Osama and his pals? Maybe we should start preparing and building our olympics around security?

TV 28th July

The big news towards the build up of the olympics was all about safety. With fierce protests and terrorist warnings security is high on the agenda at the Beijing olympics. The Chinese government have deployed 100 thousand police officers to protect and oversee the Olympics. As pictured China had received terrorist threats suggesting that they would attempt to bomb Beijing during the olympics. What was China's answer to this? well, to buy bigger and better bombs to combat the tourists, and to have them on show to put the frighteners up the little buggers. Here is a picture below of a BBC news correspondent reporting from Beijing where you can see the missiles the chinese have set up.

Apologies for the delay

Okay so as you know my three mediums were txt, TV and newspaper. So far i have updated you on my newspaper and txt research but not my television. With the assistance of Sky+ i have managed to save all the news reports on the olympics from BBC news. I have had to filter most of the generic news out but there are some interesting points made ranging from politics, slavery, world records and much more. I will post all about my television findings in the morning when i have more time. Thank you for your patience.
