Today's Wall Street Journal (WSJ) has an article on Sam Zell's risky purchase of a newspaper conglomerate, the Tribune Co. On the WSJ website, they have a video accompanying the story. I embedded it below. As you watch it, don't worry about the words, watch the camera motions and the cuts. It's the same style that the History Channel uses when they don't have real video clips to use. This pan/zoom style drives me crazy. Why, look! There's a picture of Zell now! Let's zoom in on it. Here's a picture of a newspaper. Let's pan back. Here's a fellow talking. He's fiddling with his hands, see?
Argh! It's so distracting!
