Conservative David All of TechRepublican and liberal Jerome Armstrong of MyDD have lain down together — in the lamb/lion sense, that is — to create a web TV show, DomeNation. And they just bagged John Kerry:
Kerry is now the bloggers’ buddy; I know because I get constant email from his people. Kerry says he has “met with bloggers all over the country.” Bloggers, he says, operate “without some of the cynicism and prejudice of the mainstream media” and “they have been a terrific truth and accountability squad for real information and it’s really changed politics.” Asked whether he’ll reach out to conservative bloggers, too, Kerry says, “let’s have at it.”
“YouTube is spectacular. I’m a subscriber,” he says. He talks about “dialing through it.” What a quaint view; how rabbit ears of him. Other amusing moment: his plural of forum is fori. Also fun: Kerry bragging about his motorcycles and sports.
“It has changed politics too because you have the instant accountability for what you say and what you do and there’s no privacy, in a way. Some may say that’s bad but you just gotta know when you’re around, when you’re in public you’re in public. . . . It’s good, I think it’s good. It creates an openness and accountability.”
“YouTube is a wonderful medium for getting the truth out there.” He says he wishes he had had it to deal with the Swift Boaters.
Here’s part two with Kerry: the book plug.
* No matter Kerry prefers YouTube to old TV. The producers of OutFoxed just put up a compilation of FoxNews’ attacks on Kerry in 2004.
