Maker of Anti-Clinton Video Outed, Loses Job
Raul654 writes "Philip de Vellis, the author of the anti-Hilary Clinton viral video was outed yesterday on the Huffington Post. The company he worked for, Blue State Digital — a Democratic Internet strategy company that does work for Barack Obama — has now fired him as a result. Said Vellis: 'I made the "Vote Different" ad because I wanted to express my feelings about the Democratic primary, and because I wanted to show that an individual citizen can affect the process.'"
It's really not news when you find out that the summary is completely wrong, and he resigned.
:D
When the editors don't bother to RTA, why should we?
120 characters for a sig? That's bloody useless.
Oh yes, I am well aware that the USA is actually a republic and not a direct democracy.
But my point is that even if the US were an actual, honest-to-ghod, one-man-one-vote democracy, Bush would not have been elected in either election. The recount in the first election was well on its way to proving this when it was illegally halted. In the second election, the tally clearly showed that Bush did not have the popular vote.
"You're right," Fisheye says. "I should have set it on 'whip' or 'chop.'"
