MAY 1988 ONE recent Saturday night, Connie Chung, the anchor of the weekend
version of ”NBC Nightly News,” was reading an urgent story about the
Middle East, when she began to disappear.
The studio camera had inexplicably begun to move from its position, pushing
Ms. Chung’s image
from the screen as it glided across the studio floor. Ms. Chung might
have motioned to the cameraman, except there was no cameraman. The
source of her distress was a robot, one of NBC’s new self-operating
cameras, that had apparently gotten a case of wanderlust.
The unusual incident was Ms. Chung’s personal introduction to the new age
of cost efficiency in network television, ((Very Shotly after they
instalation they were remove as maintance cost were higher than having a
Studio Crew))
0:44 thats not funny at all for a tv broadcaster as BBC …the question
that poops is ” where the fu*** are they doing in the control room…aren’t
they seeing it?” so much time out of angle that it begins to heart
i saw some of these as they happened live, i hope they never get rid of the
automated cameras, funniest thing i have ever seen is when someone is being
dead serious and the camera just trails off
Wish this could be funny, its just sad and pathetic, illustrates a contempt
for the staff in the gallery. Everything can be run on a few stored camera
moves, and a monkey in the gallery paid peanuts… or do they even have a
Gallery that is dedicated to the studio. Perhaps run the channels, with
presenters reading the links between the reports between all the other
channels, and multichannel from one gallery and presenter… “D’Oh” dont
give them that Idea…
The bbc news is a voice for the government!! Come on people.. There are
literally 100 ‘s of reporters all over the world and we get the same news
everyday. The biggest bbc blooper is the licence fee.. SCRAP IT..

– people may actually pay attention to the BBC now at least for the
funnies.
jobs are for humans, not robots. Think of all the people put out of work
because of this. It’s shameful.
The BBC has apparently been installing robotic cameras… who seems to get
bored and just wanders off 😉

In UK it’s the cameras that star in bloopers
I watch BBC News 24 religiously and there is literally a blooper every ten
minutes
Vain, aren’t they?
I love how the cameras have a mind of there own!!!

just go back to manual
i saw some of these as they happened live, i hope they never get rid of the
automated cameras, funniest thing i have ever seen is when someone is being
dead serious and the camera just trails off
