So, I tuned into the State of the Union about half an hour after it started (I was watching recorder episodes of NBC’s Committed). I’m not going to get into the specifics of the actual speech, since I was only half listening and it will all get analyzed to death over the next twenty-four hours by every news outlet in the United States. While I was watching, I noticed that there was a weird blue-purple strip in the upper-left corner of the screen. I flipped stations and did not see this on the other channels.
Then during one of the closeups on audience members, I noticed that the overlay of the person’s name was half off of the screen. It looks like the overlays are somehow zoomed in, while the video is at the appropriate size. A good chunk of the overlays are off of the screen because of this weird zoom. Did anyone else see it? And why the hell didn’t NBC fix it after a commercial break or even during the President’s speech or the Democratic Party’s response?
