Bad Apple!! on CNN

"Bad Apple!! feat. nomico" was featured in short clip on CNN! Based on the video, it seems it was shown at some point in the afternoon on CNN Newsroom. Now normally, this would be awesome. But it's not. Before I show the video, let me give a short history of "Bad Apple!! feat. nomico".

  • 2007/05/20: Doujin group "Alstroemeria Records" releases "Bad Apple!! feat. nomico" on their album "Lovelight" at Reitaisai 4.
  • 2008/06/08: NicoNico user "Μμ" uploads a video detailing what he would like to see in a Bad Apple!! music video (NicoNico, YouTube). Many users oblige, leading to several popular versions.
  • 2009/10/27: NicoNico user "あにら" uploads his 影絵 (shadow picture) version of the video, which instantly becomes a hit, keeping the top ranked position on NicoNico for weeks (NicoNico, YouTube). Many derivative videos start going up.
  • 2010/01/28: NicoNico user "shige-ruuu" uploads his own derivative version of the shadow picture video, made using stop-motion animation, and it is one of the more popular derivatives (NicoNico, YouTube).
  • 2010/01/30: CNN runs a short news clip about "Bad Apple!! feat. nomico" on CNN Newsroom.

For the CNN video, I have provided not only the usual NicoNico embedded player and link, but the YouTube link as well to allow you to see how much CNN fails.
