    The red coats are the monarchists, that's what Trump's wants to be, you need a revolution from your government with well regulated militias of social Democrats to fight the Nazis in power.

    The most important thing is that he heard it.
    Yeah, ok, he has no shame but even the shameless don't like the idea of strangers just booing them for being there.

    I'm a huge fan of booing for exactly the reason you said. Sometimes I do it solo at work when someone does something really ridiculous. I feel like this world cup series in America could get kinda wild and no ones really considering it.

    That's because viewers in the US drowned out the boos with their own lol.

    Also yes editing live broadcasts for propaganda purposes super bad.

    I’d like to go one day without reading or hearing about that fucking country.

    Unfortunately, as much as I want to avoid it, almost everything including the world economy, is so heavily tied to that country.

    Well, you're all fucked, because if this illiterate fuck stain of a country ever wakes up, shit is going to get real. I think there are three guns for every person and that sounds about right. The violence is going to be brutal.

    Also, all the kids who are supposed to graduate college about now stopped learning Math in 8th grade due to pandemic. Industry is about to be without educated interns. I wonder if people will get desparate faster.

    I watched it live and heard boos and the announcers mentioned it.

    The replay did not have that part.

    This was in the US

    Does anyone have a link where we can listen to Vance and Israel being booed?

    It's not as great as the news is making it out. Yes there are some boos in the midst of cheers and whistles, but it's mild.

    NBC said they didn’t do anything. I was watching something online which was specifically supposed to be showing the booing but I couldn’t hear it either. It was obviously there because there’s been so much about it, maybe it was about where the mics were.

    It was quiet on feeds. I could hear it on headphones, but on tinny built-in speakers you probably couldn't.

    It didn't feel like a particularly malicious edit to me, though. The commentators were obviously avoiding politics, perhaps under order, so not bringing it up is consistent.

  • My understanding is that the host country supplies the feeds for all events. Broadcasters that get the rights to broadcast are choosing what feeds to broadcast, adding their own commentary, doing their own editing. They also film their own "local" interest and interviews. Host countries can't have each broadcaster fighting over where to place cameras, etc. The sound would have been part of the host country's live feed. I saw a small snippet of the CBC (Canada) broadcast and the commentators commented on the booing when the feed showed Vance, but it was hard to hear in the broadcast itself. I think the issue is that while the other broadcasters acknowledged it, NBC did not. I did not see the NBC snippet myself.

    I've watched a handful of videos now and I really don't hear a significant amount of boos

    Trump said, "He doesn't get booed in the U.S."

    Politicians: their cushy salaries keep them oblivious & indifferent to anyone's negative opinions.
