Editing History, Alicia Keys, and the Super Bowl Halftime Show 2024 Feb 14
So apparently during the Super Bowl Halftime Show, Alicia Keys flubbed the opening note of her performance. I wouldn't know because everyone I was watching it with wouldn't shut the hell up. But anyway, the official recordings of the Halftime show mysteriously do not have this flubbed note, but instead have Keys singing it correctly. Is this some quick and justified editing, or are we living in a post-truth world? Do we deserve to have the error in the record as if it's a documentary, or do we deserve to have the best possible performance in our entertainment? I don't have the answers to these questions, but people are asking them, and I'm having fun noodling them in my noggin.
