Auto Tune The News

Sarah Palin Quits! Auto-Tune The News!

Auto-Tuning is a computer software program used by musicians — like Cher or R. Kelly — to simulate perfect pitch with an urban radio sound. Michael Gregory, who’s only 24 years old, recruited family members and a green screen (the kind weathermen use to place images one top of each other like when doing forecasts) to produce 6 really funny Auto-Tune videos which have gone viral and viewed 6 million times on You Tube. You can watch the latest one called, “Sarah Palin Quits! Auto-Tune The News” below the fold

Get ready because no one is spared. Making a video appearance are: A sing-songy Michele Bachmann invoking “liberty or tyranny” on the House floor; a repetitive Nancy Pelosi singing “Jobs! Jobs! Jobs! Jobs! Let’s vote for jobs!”; an indignant John Boehner “Hell no!”; Sarah Palin making her resignation speech; and former Michael Jackson lawyer Brian Oxman, in lyrics like “You know it’s unconstitutional to take away my God-given pharmaceuticals.” It’s a riot!

And the cool thing is, Michael Gregory and his team don’t take much editorial license with what they cover; they simply take what is in the news and make it funny. I know if I were on Capital Hill and one of the ’stars’ of “Sarah Palin Quits: Auto-Tune the News!” video, I would pass it around, laughing my fool head off.
