Awkward News: Poor Video Quality at the Courtroom

Well That Was Awkward

This morning, broadcast networks and cable news channels provide live coverage of the shooting suspect in the courtroom. Unfortunately, the video (and the audio) is so poor, networks have been thinking "we don't think we'll get any information because...the quality of the video is....terrible. So let's get out of here."

So what happened.

KUSA-TV a station in Denver, was the only channel that was providing the footage (because it was selected by the judge to provide it to all television outlets - maybe it's because this station is so special). And then what happened? Well it's not because they make bad video it's just that, apparently, the court wants the station to use new technology rather than cameras with wires.

Why? It's because of security reasons, which sort of makes the question for the court "What kind of security reasons do you have since we don't get to see some beautiful good-looking picture?"

And because of this, KUSA have to us a video backpack. The problem is...they having trouble getting the best picture. The video froze, everyone in KUSA got frustrated and it's not going well.

So the reason why the video is so poor is because of KUSA's (frustrated) backpack.

See what one of their reporters say about it:
