Was the National Day Parade live broadcast an attempt on satire?

i just love it when they do live broadcasts. why? because it's always a so hilarious listening to the commentry. last night on TV, they had a voiceover interview with the assistant choreographer of one of the mass displays. he said, "they really look like they are having lots of fun" just as the broadcast editor chose a feed from one of the cameras that was filming 3 boys with an expression that said "why am i here?". and everytime they had a shot of the audience, they seemed to focus on people that seemed bored/uninterested/listless.

hmmm... being a broadcast editor must be a fantastic job - you get to choose which feeds you want AND because it is a live broadcast, there is no censorship! ahahaha! so you can make the whole event into a farce and no one can stop you! perhaps the editor was making a wise-ass statement on the whole event and no one realised. propoganda has been foiled!
