Select scenes feature [[Marilyn Manson|Manson]] bound to a crucifix made of televisions (this may refer to the theme of "God is in the T.V."), similar to the epitaph Manson portrays in the video for the "[[Coma White]]" single, albeit Manson is 'nailed' to a traditional wooden crucifix in that video. Throughout the video Manson is seen in various places, including a doctor's office, a live television talk show which he disrupts, and an abandoned factory complex, all of which are within a lower-class suburban area. All the people in the video, excluding the band members, are seen with disturbingly large eyes. The climax of the video sees Manson running up the stairs of the factory and jumping from a catwalk between two stairways to escape four, headless soldiers hunting for him on both staircases. This is followed by a scene of a set of televisions laid out on the ground to form a crucifix with Manson's body depicted throughout them; the television where Manson's head would be instead depicts static. | + | The [http://youtube.com/watch?v=hQBOhdb_5n4 music video], directed by Paul Hunter during the third week of October 1998,<ref>''NEWS FOR YOU''.
