Stumble ThisA clip from Fox News in the year 2505 from the Movie "Idiocracy" by Mike Judge. It shows us the future of new reporting, and seems depressingly prophetic.

'Hehe heh heh Velveeta, who the FUCK, is stupid enough to walk.....Goddamn pedestrians!!"
however, it is depressing, because after seeing it, you will see the signs of it's seeming inevetability everywhere.
Sadly the full version was pulled from google, an edited version still 1hr,18min long is up but it had all but the interviews edited out, inbetween the interviews with former employees was clips supporting the claims in the interviews along with internal memoranda.
The edited version:

It does make a point that stupid people have more kids than smarter people, but also it has been said that the average IQ in the world has been on the raise ever since man first appeared. So... I'm relatively confident something like what happens in this movie is very unlikely.
p.5. 7h15 m0v13 r0ck5!!!!
The thing is, the clips I saw were ultimately better than this movie as a whole. Don't get me wrong, there were some great parts in it...but it just didn't stand up as a complete movie and parts of it just down right dragged. I still recommend it as a rental though.
Am personally hoping the rise of free information and knowledge via the internet will cease this from happening.
Hopefully.

Fox News, right there. Paul Verhoeven got it right, way back in 1987.
Anyone remember the news programs in Robocop? I remember one where the talking heads were reporting about a satellite destroying half the Brazilian rainforest (or something similar) and how enviromentalists are calling it a disaster of huge proportions. The one talking head turns to the other and facetiously says, "but don't they always?"

Well, not exactly. Not to take anything away from Mr. Verhoeven, but the story was that of the Star Wars missile defense satellite laser cannon misfiring on Santa Barbara where it hit several homes, causing the deaths of 2 retired US Presidents (the needle on the trusty IronyMeter was buried with them).
But there wasn't any Fox-esque tactics to taint these fictional stories. Maybe you're thinking of RoboCop 2, which I do not know nearly as well.
