ABC News: Al Gore YouTube Spoof Not So Amateurish
I like the term they use for faked grassroots support; Astroturf. This whole fucking country is nothing but Astroturf. Oh well, let’s just keep fiddling.
In the movie, Gore is seen boring an army of penguins with his lecture and blaming global warming for everything, including Lindsay Lohan’s thinness.
But when the Wall Street Journal tried to find the guy who posted the film “Al Gore’s Penguin Army” — listed on YouTube as a 29-year-old — they found the movie didn’t come from an amateur working out of his basement.
The film actually came from a slick Republican public relations firm called DCI, which just happens to have oil giant Exxon as a client.
I found the video. It’s really rather stupid by anyone’s account, one of the lowest rated videos on YouTube.
