For too long, auto-tune has existed as a way for T-Pain and Kanye West to make cool songs without actually increasing the level of their talent.  Now that the audio processor is finally making its way into the hands of the proletariat, we’re finally seeing it used the way new technologies should be used: for cheap laughs.

This week in “Auto-Tune the News,” Michael Gregory uses auto-tune on news clips as he “interacts” with news anchors and politicians to discuss pirates, the legalization of marijuana, and gay marriage.  And it’s all set to a fresh beat that will resonate with the nation’s youth!  That’s the best part — that he’s reaching out and touching the kids.  Um, metaphorically.  I hope.
