The Verge Takes John Oliver's 'Dog Supreme Court' And Remixes The Aereo Hearing

from the nicely-done dept

Thu, Oct 23rd 2014 2:46pm — Mike Masnick

Earlier this week, we wrote about how John Oliver had not only "solved" the problem of the Supreme Court not allowing cameras in the court (but releasing audio tape) by setting up a fake Supreme Court with dogs, but had also made the raw footage available and asked other news media to make use of them. I had wondered if anyone would actually take him up on it. There's at least one. The good folks over at The Verge have remixed the Supreme Court's hearings on Aereo, and it's pretty damn entertaining. They even make use of the shot of "Dog" Justice Alito humping "Dog" Justice Kagan. Nicely done.

Don't bother going to the Verge article if you're on a mobile device, the video's just not available there. Instead, visit YouTube to watch it.

  Haven't you been paying attention? The Supreme Court said "No Cameras."
