656005, I work in local tv news.

While I enjoyed the season premiere, something just kinda rubbed me the wrong way.

There was a video package that was coming up in the show, but the reporter who recorded the track earlier in the day got some information wrong. Unfortunately he was out to dinner at a loud restaurant. They told him to "get in a quiet place" so they could have him say it over his old lines. If you see the episode, you'll know the scene.

My thing? Almost impossible.

His voice would have to be EXACT exact. Miss me w/ that "say it again but faster"
Reporters record those tracks in sound proof booths. It would sound horrible coming over a cell phone no matter how quiet a place he found. Now, I get that they have to take certain liberties with this fake news network because it's a TV drama. I get that. But to pull off something like this? Ha ha...no.
