SG 5 Media Funnies

The good thing that comes from poor telling of the news would have to the funny punch lines or cartoons created. I know they may be inappropriate but they are so darn funny. A news show that was discussing the extinction of animals due to global warming clearly made a mistake while trying to sct like he knew everything.

News anchor says humans hunted dildo to extinction instead of dodo


CNN International presenter Jonathan Mann was in the middle of making an important point about climate change when he confused the name of the sex toy with that of the extinct bird.
While talking about a study that said some species of animals wouldn’t be able to adapt in time to the rising temperatures, he said: ‘Now extinctions, I don’t have to tell you, have been a part of the history of the world for millennia.
‘And man-made extinctions have even happened before.
‘I guess we hunted the dildo into extinction’.
He quickly realized he had made a mistake and corrected himself, adding: ‘Um, but, the dodo, rather, forgive me, I’m having trouble with my words today.’
 
This was hilarious. Jonathon could not even keep a straight face afterwards. News should always be so honest and natural and not fabricated and so far from the truth, that you hardly recognize the original story at all.

  1. Ha ha ha!! Freudian slips are the best. We all make them, the best thing to do is join in the laughter. When I was a bartender, some regular came in with a joke gift of a "toy", he asked the other bartender if she had a box that it would fit in, she gave him a dirty look and snapped, "NO!" and turned around and stomped away. It took him several minutes to realize what had offended her. I still chuckle about that one.
