What happened to BBC News?

I thought they were supposed to explain things to us, instead of asking us to explain things to them...

its not even an article, just pointing something out

strange, I only seemed to notice that song being chanted when germany scored, I thought it was just a german thing, didn't know all the fans were getting in on it
Omg thank you so much, I thought I was going nuts. After every goal I used to hear that song but people that were with me couldnt hear it, still sane !

It's a trigger.

Must kill the Queen. *Robot voice*
I've actually wanted to know this. Bayern Munich fans use this chant a lot and I suppose the German national football fans have also adopted it, that and heroically cheering GOMEZ after the announcer says MARIOOOOO...

I absolutely hate this song. It's symptomatic of the commercialised happy-clappy supporters who are incapable of creating any actual atmosphere. Clubs like Wigan who blast this rubbish out every game (ok, the rare times they actually score) should be ashamed!

it's not the song's fault people abuse it.

News broadcasters always ask you to explain things, it's not about the facts but how they present the information. "first get the facts then you can play around with it" this is what news do, they take facts and present them in a way which fits their agenda and they always present articles in such a way that asks the reader = hey this is bad bblablabla, but what do you think? obviously they don't formulate it that way but it's what they do.
There is a format for news presentation.

Here we see Charlie Brooker explain it to us.
