I had the ABC news onto tonight with Peter Jennings.
While covering the story of the ex-student who entered a school in Erfurt and
shot 18 teachers, a female student was interviewed. The girl said at one
point (in German) that the attacker was 1 m in front of her. The dub over
changed the 1 m to 3 feet.
I thought it was the policy of reporting not to change
what people actually say. The dubber did a disservice as she gave the
impression the girl actually used feet, when she didn't.
