In this particular comedic, bogus, and absolutely hilarious report by the Onion News Network on Sony's new product, two reporters, Brandon Armstrong and Jeff Tate, portray this product as worthless. This report was shown on the Onion News Network, a branch of the Onion News Paper. The Onion News Network makes fun of news by reporting news stories that are completely made up, but report them as if they are reporting real, serious events. This seriousness makes this particular clip about the new stupid piece of shit Sony just released, hilarious. This particular report is extremely satirical. The subliminal or second level of this clip is that it is meant to point out how complicated technology. The audience that is watching this clip will be able to identify, because most all of us have had trouble with hooking a gadget up to the television or computer. Coming from personal experience, whenever we try to watch a video in Lit 101, we always have a problem with the sound or hooking the television up with another gadget. Technology can be extremely frustrating sometimes, and that's what this report is trying to play off of. The audience of this piece will most likely agree with the point this report brings, that technology is extremely complicated nowadays and trying to learn how to use new technology is extremely frustrating.
