News In Bull: Your weekly guide to the most ridiculous news stories
News In Bull is a weekly news based comedy game recorded in Griffith Studios. Each week three panelists pick the weirdest or funniest news story that they encounter and then read them to each other. They then take the piss out of each others stories and anybody featuered within. The three stories are then put to a vote and the newsreader with the most votes is declared the winner and walks away with a grand prize of absolutely nothing. Topics such as misuse of tasers by police, drunken hijinx and inappropriate sexual behaviour are all topics commonly brought up for discussion.
