Name a conventional pairing of story and stock footage seen on TV news
Edited on Sun Jul-06-08 07:42 PM by KurtNYC
Here are a few to get us started:

1. When talking a flu outbreak they show close-ups of needles going into arms

2. Every story about marijuana will be accompanied by a close-up of a huge reefer being smoked, the person's face will not be visible and they will never ever smoke out of a bong.

3. When talking about obesity, TV news always shows stock footage of overweight people seen only from the neck down, usually from the back and usually they are walking and wearing shorts.

Got any more?
