But I’d prefer to think that he was just trying to tell the news through mimesmanship. The fiddling with a defective microphone was symbolic of out country’s failures in educating our children, leaving them with no voice. Then his trembling voice shows that even those who rise from the ashes of our unjust institutions cannot deliver their message adequately. It’s really a cinematic triumph of a local newscast, if you ask me.

What'd you think of this?
