My mate used to work for a company that shared a building with the short-lived cable channel Channel One. What I'm sure Channel one didn't realise was that any TV in the building could pick up all its feeds. The direct Reuters feed was hypnotic, and pretty much what you're describing: no comforting voiceover to put the images in context, just random, unexplained unpleasantness. We also got to see the presenters fucking up and redoing their pre-recorded segments, occasionally adjusting their underwear, sneaking a fag—and revealing their true voices—in between voiceovers, etc etc. Hours of fun.
