Fired Up

TAGS: Movies: Shorts

Fired Up33.JPG
Newsbreakers is a group of people who spoof news media on location, guerilla - style. Newsbreakers founder Buck “Lucky” Owens is actually employed by the news media, so his actions could be taken as a sign that the broadcast news media has started to eat itself, the first flames licking the walls of the media Rome… or something. In truth it appears to be smug people in masks hassling local news dimwits in a manner slightly less sophisticated than the ones pioneered by the more creative Howard Stern fan, but they do manage get it all on tape, which is fun to watch… unless you’re paying one, as Buck’s boss was, right up until the first day after the very first Newsbreakers prank. “Fired Up” is the short video of Buck’s return to his former workplace building, mostly to retrieve a can of soup. Wedding soup.
