[Translate] The Huffington Post has a story on how CNN’s ratings have hit a near-rock-bottom 20-year-low in primetime. Apparently CNN drew an average of just 389,000 primetime viewers from April 30 to May 27 of 2012. To show you how low that is, the best this video-blogger’s YouTube channel has done is 252,000 viewers in one day on YouTube, and...

[Translate] Last year in July, I was on CNN’s “Roland Martin Debates” and said that YouTube’s greatest contribution to politics was that a candidate had to be authentic. That the person had to make statements that were consistent. I then used the example of presidential candidate, Senator Hillary Clinton, who attacked he rival Senator Barack Obama for stating that he would talk to and meet with our enemies, when just a few months earlier, Senator Clinton herself said she would do the same thing and the evidence...

[Translate] Wow. It’s Sunday, November 25th at 10 AM. For some reason, when I go to http://www.youtube.com I get this message: “Http/1.1 Service Unavailable” That’s wild. It also means I can’t review my video traffic or upload videos for the CNN / YouTube Debate. I tried to get to YouTube via my FireFox Browser, but again, I got: “Http/1.1 Service Unavailable” So what’s going on, I don’t know. I just know that in all the time I’ve used YouTube.com, I’ve never...

[Translate] Calling for a “Vloggercot” I just finished watching the ABC Iowa Republican Presidential Debate. You know the one. The one that claimed to be based around video submissions by people like you and me. The one that got everyone thinking that the top rated videos would be used? The one where it was reported that ABC News George Stephanopoulos would use the questions. Well, they didn’t do that. ABC committed the most brazen act of video content fraud I’ve ever seen. They promoted this debate...

[Translate] This is a video of my great adventure of a trip to New York City and to be a guest on CNN’s “Roland Martin Debates” Show on Friday July 27th 2007. My question submitted for the CNN / YouTube debates opened up a whole new set of doors and emboldened me to use video more effectively to communicate ideas and messages as well as to give others a voice. But that’s not what this video’s about. This movie’s about my trip. The video takes the first two days of my trip, from plane ride to...
[Translate] At Monday’s CNN / YouTube Debate, Senator Hillary Clinton stopped short of saying she would talk to Third World leaders like Hugo Chavez, explaining in a complex way that she would send diplomatic envoys to do this. By contrast, Senator Obama expained that he would send a message that he was willing to have dialog with leaders we don’t currently have a great relationship with. After the debate, some have tried to paint Senator Obama as less experienced than Senator Clinton because of the debate. While...
