    That station is already one of the most watched TV channels in Portugal, it's also the most spineless, sensationalist and overall lacking any common sense of any TV channel in Portugal

    They're mostly watched by old people and between young people as basically turned itself into a meme, as they are often the first ones to show up any form of disaster, be it a literal second 9/11 or a car running over a snail, they show up and do the most sensationalist and over the top news report. There were two instances that immediately came to my mind, once they were reporting a bomb threat in a car, it was a quite dramatic report, until the moment that guy who called about the bomb threat was interviewed, he was the owner of the car and started rambling about his mother having visions and then he says that he knew he had a bomb in the car because his mother told him in a dream. There was obviously no bomb. The other one was their report on a wild cow that was roaming around a town

    Edit: I just remembered something, I believe the reporter in the video is the daughter of another reporter from the same station. The mother has become quite the meme as well because she always looks either drunk out of her mind or with one of those hangovers that you don't even remember which year is it, her name is Tania Laranjo

    19 points DevilSP21

    From what people have been saying on portuguese social media (this is from Portugal), the big deal is that apparently, there was a girl giving an interview to a reporter from that channel and that girl asked for her face to be covered, as a protective measure. And, apparently, this news reporter was showing the girl's face on her cellphone to the cameran or something.

    parent root
    1 points doublek1022

    I think I got the general grasp of why people ask questions.

    Here's where my confusion lies:

    This sub is about funny or cringy clips where someone’s face shows that split second they lose hope, get embarrassed, or feel utterly defeated basically, watching people “die a little inside” in real life.

    So while I respect your curiosity about the true meaning behind why the news anchor reacted the way she did, that’s just not what this sub is for. It’s kind of like walking into a comedy club and asking the comedian to cite their sources. You’re missing the point of why we’re here.

    Well, manufacturers have figured out people are more likely to buy stuff that has "smart" features built-in, so that's what they build, even if it uses cheap components and is poorly designed (both software- and hardware-wise). That's a bonus actually, because people will need to replace their TV if it begins malfunctioning or new features get added by updates that make the experience worse. They don't build for utility or quality, they build for "convenience" and steady profit.
    I'm sure you can still find "dumb" TVs that include only the most basic of controls, as they used to, but it seems exceedingly rare. Perhaps hotel TVs?
