I mean think of it like this: at 22 you don’t know a shit about anything. And thats the point. Do you think a really smart and expereinced reporter will appeal to a younger audience whose jeans start at the knees? For them IRan simply means the past tense of an early morning jog. So great going guys. Why not give the guy some lipstick and earings, that way, you can also appeal to teh cross dressing public. What? Did i say something wrong? Wasn’t this supposed to be make-your-reporter-look-like-the-target-audience marketing strategy? Also, the next time, you can have a three year old commenting on the primaries, that way those infants too may decide to switch from cartoons and watch the real cartoons namely hillary, barack and mc pain or something like that

And yes, anther thing. He can strip at the end of hte reports, the girls may enjoy it and i dare say, some boys too (oops, dont ask dont yell!)

Hey and another thing> why not make him vote for bush? That way, the young voters will know that Bush is not something that grows in the backyard but just travels some three billion miles to bomb some irrelevant people and then call it a war on terror! Lame duck? No no, re-read the constitution, these days miracles happen, remmeber the year 2000?

#’s 2 & 3 were though!

It’s WMUR, Manchester!

1. i see no mention of facebook there. not even a link. it’s one thing to ride their popularity…

2. the “reporter” looks nothing like what most college students are going to pay attention to. he looks like a nice intern candidate. but i happen to have been on the university of chicago campus yesterday afternoon and i can tell you maybe 5 of the 1000 students i saw had a haircut like that (or even a haircut) much less a button-down shirt.

as said earlier… quit with the safe stuff.

but the REAL news would have been arming a 70 year old little old lady with a digital camera and a laptop.

everyone knows older folks are steadfast voters. more and more of them are going online. yes, tv owners, the last part of your audience is enroute to leaving you.

today i had the opportunity to pass through a recently built (BEAUTIFUL) local library where over 1/2 of the internet stations had gray hair seated at them.

what do you suppose they were doing?

YOU WANNA MAKE WAVES?

quit with the safe stuff.

Another kid being given a major-market journalism job because he’s young and must understand young people.

Experience? Hah! Don’t need it.
