694: Bend it Down

Media Sound Effects, PBS Newshour Car Rumbles

Adam Curry identifies what he believes are canned sound effects used in PBS Newshour reports, specifically a "throaty" car rumble dubbed over footage of the Ukraine conflict. He argues that these sounds are used for psychological effect to evoke a sense of historical gravity or military power. The hosts attempt to identify the specific vehicle sound, comparing it to a German staff car or a vintage Packard.
