Why settle for Crap News when you can access Rap News?

Episode XIII - A NEWS HOPE 

It is a time of corporate war.

Deprived of a reliable media the people of Planet Earth are kept misinformed and in a state of perpetual conflict.

In order to discover whether an honest Fourth Estate is the Force than can restore peace and balance to this distant arm of the Galaxy, Juice Rap News consults two of journalism's most inflammatory figures: Rebel journalist enfant terrible, Julian Assange who awaits a verdict in London which could see him 'extradited' to Sweden. And, on the opposite end of the media spectrum, Rupert Murdoch, the media mogul embroiled in legal scandals which go to the highest level of celebrity in Britain.

In the manichean manner of some ancient laser sword and forcery epic, join the wisest news-anchor in the galaxy, Robert Foster, as he attempts to wrangle these two figures together for a rap-debate.

Will the light or the dark side prevail, and is it really so easy to know which is which? Will egos get in the way of civilised debate? How many Bothans died to bring us this information? Is the Force Estate with Robert? Will we see THE RETURN OF THE JOURNALI before the EMPIRE EXTRADITES BACK?

For answers to these questions, and more, pull down your blast shields, switch off your on-board computer and feel the force in this episode of Juice Rap News... or click play.







Congratulations and respect, Giordano Nanni and Hugo Farrant of The Juice Media, for brilliantly realizing an idea whose time is now!

RAP NEWS UPDATE: State of Planet Earth as we lurch drunkenly or sleepwalk towards 2012...

The Juice Media RAP News series is the brilliant brainchild of Hugo Farrant and Giordano Nanni. In the last year or so subscribers to their YouTube channel have skyrocketed.

I'm happy to have met Hugo Farrant (who plays Robert Foster and almost every character in RAP News) in September 2010 when he was stuck in Malaysia waiting for his agent to sort out his Australian visa. While sojourning at Magick River, Hugo received an email from Julian Assange (of WikiLeaks), inviting him to record a special episode of RAP News in London. Soon after that the hit counter on The Juice Media channel went berserk...



These guys are absolutely, mindbogglingly amazing... standing ovation, folks!

RAP NEWS GOES VIRAL WITH WIKILEAKS!

Hugo Farrant was chilling at Magick River when he received an invitation from Julian Assange to record a new episode of RAP NEWS in London, all expenses paid. Not long after that the names Julian Assange and WikiLeaks were on everybody's lips. Watch high-end rapper-poet Hugo in action and you'll soon have his name on your lips too...





GO, HUGO, GO!!!
