This article has been incorrectly labelled as Satire.

Dear Aunty, If you're going to throw a bunch of wildly new and experimental features at your news site, please at least make them options. I despise short-form videos. I don't want a whole section of the site dedicated to short videos. I disable YouTube Shorts every 30 days in the hopes YouTube will take the hint and let us kill them from our feeds entirely.

When I want to watch videos, I fire up iView.

Agreed. I've fixed the title.

The chaser have really dropped the ball here by posting a legit news story

i mean, it worked! I look at the news a LOT less. Even uninstalled the app.
