sound bite je kada u okviru televizijskog priloga imate isecak u kome neko govori. Ostatak price koju prica novinar svojim glasom je tzv. off. Na zapadnim televizijama je to ili sound bite ili interview. U vasem kontekstu mislim da to takvo znacenje nije pravo. Moguce je da je soundbite news neka postapalica, ali nisam siguran

Prema Collins English Dicitonary - "sound bite" is a short pithy sentence or phrase extracted from a longer speech for use on radio or television. Dakle kratke i sadrzajene vijesti, novosti..

Cini mi se da je u ovom slucaju znacenje figurativno, pa stoga smatram da bi bilo prihvatljivo staviti "zvucne" ili "isjecene vijesti". Inace, novinari u HR koriste termin sound-bite.
Zasto smo preplavljeni sound bite / isjecenim / zvucnim vijestima i infantilnim politicarima koji obecavaju ono sto ne namjeravaju ispuniti?

Definicija:
In film and broadcasting, a soundbite is a very short piece of footage taken from a longer speech or an interview in which someone with authority says something which is considered by those who edit the speech or interview to be a most important point. As the context of what is being said is missing, the insertion of soundbites into news broadcasts or documentaries is open to manipulation and thus requires a very high degree of journalistic ethics. Politicians of the new generation are carefully coached by their spin doctors to produce on demand soundbites which are clear and to the point.

mozda i parolaske vesti, mada meni zvuci malo preterano
