Style Without Substance: Cause Marketing
in a way only youtube can, i lost my train of thought and was brought on a totally unrelated journey. the first link on the youtube home page was to an awareness campaign called US Campaign For Burm. basically, from what i gather, a for profit web site called fanista.com convinced a bunch of celebrities to record themselves talking about our collective need to do something about the human rights violations going on in Burma.

Rant: Typically, Tim Russert is followed by The McLaughlin Report, aka the Octogenerian show. Actually, scratch that. 60 Minutes is the Octogenarian Show.

After watching Meet the Press this morning, it went straight to the Still Hot But Not For Long Which Makes Me Sad (SHBNFLWMMS) Mario Bartiromo. Wait, where’s the McLaughlin Report!?
