The tories have launched webcamron, in an attempt to ‘reach disaffected young voters‘. Isn’t sometimes embarrassing when someone tries too hard? Like a 60 year old banker with a leather jacket and a mohawk.
The thing is, boys, that it’s not about having your videos on the web. Its about having ours. Its not about you tagging the content, its us. But hey – here’s an idea. I can download your clips, upload them to youtube, and then really have me some fun.
I gotta admit though, you have a good copywriter. webcam-ron. cute. just watch out you don’t slip too far down that slope.
Is this the same thing? I saw on the news that some Tory bloggers have set up a web television station running from Doughty St, just around the corner from LKL. Not to Tory bash, but just to observe, the broadcast journalists in that report were strong on the fact that an Internet TV station is not subject to the same truth and veracity constraints as broadcast media.
Wondering more generally, how many political Internet TV stations will we see before the next election?
Incidentally here’s another political web site.
