This is too short of a gif. The longer video shows true intent.

Yeah, when I posted this the extended longer video appeared at the top of the page on load. They've since added more videos, so now the footage of the reporter being shot with a rubber bullet is video 3 (or there's just the YouTube link in the post body which is better quality anyway).

No worries, at this point most of us who care have seen it dozens of times already. But it is just so weird that they do that stuff after the fact. I mean, unless it's an updated, live thing. I get that, but why split a video into a bunch of short gifs? Is there a modern psych thing that says it's easier to take in or something?

Overseas News

A place for Australians and friends to share news from the other countries. Like all communities here, we discuss topics from the Australian perspective.

If you're looking for a global /c/worldnews instead, search for the many options on federated instances.

Rules
  1. Follow the aussie.zone rules
  2. We are not a generic World News clone. News must be relevant to Australians and our region. Obvious disregard will earn an warning and then a ban if continued. (If an article isn't from an Oceanian news outlet, and it doesn’t mention Australia, then it’s probably off-topic)
  3. Leave seppocentrism at the door. If you don't know what that means, you're not ready to post here yet.
  4. Avoid editorialising headlines. Opinions go in the comments, not the post.
