Charlie Brooker's Newswipe will be on many newsroom computer screens this morning. The last completely new episode of the current series focussed on "going live". A number of BBC, ITN and Sky correspondents and reporters feature in pointless preview clips, but the real derision should be saved for the planning teams that set up these sequences; the on-air editors who cut to empty podiums as if they hadn't got a preview screen; and the editors at the top of these organisations (with a capital "E") who seem oblivious to how daft it all looks.
