The folks at TMZ are something between parasite and scavenger. Or at least that's how I typically see them. They just roam around looking for bones to pick through. This video shows them being something between a predator, con-artist, and hack comic.
The worst thing about this isn't their misrepresentation of the setup (to the audience) and intention (to Yi): it's that they think it's funny. Despite Yi's complaint, their little stunt might actually help the cause because they give the website and eventually explain the purpose and all that. And who cares if they make Yi look silly? She's being silly. Oxfam doesn't need us to take her seriously.
But they're so proud of their little joke here. And it's just… meh.
