The PM on YouTube
posted by coyote
Beforehand, the Toronto Star described it as the PM going viral. Maybe because it was as painful as herpes?
The morning after, Canuck media were still aTwitter (heh...) over a guy, rigidly fiberglass of hair and manner, churning out pre-scripted blahblah in response to cherry-picked citizen questions on YouTube.
So, what was the real rationale? Ummm, lessee, most of us use YouTube to upload any lame crap we feel like. Oh, wait...!

The whole thing could have been done as a written Q&A; his answers were to mostly PMO-scripted questions, and there was no allowed follow-up by the "moderator." This is innovating?
Ha ha ha ha ha! A lame FORTY-MINUTE interview with a lame neo-con, and they think that just because it's on Youtube, youth will eat it up. Ha ha. I loved that ESI sock puppet movie, btw. It left me wanting more.
Nonny: No, it's desperately clinging to an old top-down media model, whilst spitting in the eyes of the real media in this country. You know - control freakism.
Zoom: We wanted more, too, ma'am. But after Kate Winslett agreed to play Aggie, and we pencilled in lunch with Johnny Depp to talk him into playing me, development stalled. For some unaccountable reason...
