Ever do the switchover game ? It can be done by using the TV remote control to switch channels, and stay on each channel just for a couple of seconds, and then quickly switch to another channel. You can do it with any number of channels, but I've found with 3 it works best.
The idea is too see what words will be said on each channel in the brief 2 seconds that you are on each channel. Of course this can be (and often is) ruined by TV commercials, but sometimes you can get all 3 of your channels not in a commercial. So here's an example of what you might see with FOX, CNN, and MSNBC.
1. FOX - "fighting for their lives"
CNN - "don't miss this valuable report"
MSNBC - "It's racist"
2. FOX - "Obama is clueless"
CNN - "three countries in Africa"
MSNBC - "It's racist"
3. FOX - "The president of Mexico"
CNN - "Flight MH370"
MSNBC - "It's racist"
4. FOX - "ISIS is advancing"
CNN - "Calls for an Ebola travel ban"
MSNBC - "It's racist"
