Public: Don't Mess With My Flight Plans

Sun, 13 Aug 2006 11:58:25 PDT
"Pretty soon we'll have to fly naked!" The mass media rapidly embraced the UK terror storyline fed to them.

Tricia Walsh Smith Vents Youtube Divorce

HULIQ (press release), USA
 

Tricia Walsh Smith Vents Youtube Divorce

 
Not only is Youtube (Web Video) good for sharing Music Videos and TV Broadcasts segments, but apparently its a great tool to use when trashing soon-to-be estranged spouses as Tricia Walsh Smith invents new style of divorce: Youtube Divorce.

Former actress and playwright ("Bonkers") Tricia Walsh-Smith, vented ALL of her frustrations out against her husband, Philip Smith, President of the Shubert Organization, the largest theater owner on Broadway, on Youtube.

Famous Divorce Raoul Felder who represents Tricia Walsh Smith says, "The situation is funny but Divorce isn't". "This is a victim who is holding her head up. I think she comes off well."

On the taping of this already famous YouTube Divorce video Smith bashes family members who gave her hell and tells the world how her husband, is allegedly trying to evict her from their luxury apartment.

Tricia Walsh Smith also makes embarrassing claims regarding their intimate life, and then calls his office on camera to repeat those claims to a stunned assistant in the divorce video put on YouTube.

Norman Sheresky, a Partner in the Matrimonial Law firm Sheresky Aronson Mayesfsky & Sloan says, "I don't think it's the kind of thing people should be doing, and it's the kind of thing judges frown upon".

"This is absolutely a new step, and I think it's scary," said Bonnie Rabin, a divorce lawyer who has handled high-profile cases. "People used to worry about getting on Page Six (the gossip page of the New York Post). But this? It brings the concept of humiliation to a whole new level."

To date Tricia Walsh Smith's YouTube Video (below) has been seen by more than 150,000 viewers.

When everyone’s an aggregator who’s going to do the creating?

Tue, 15 Apr 2008 19:50:46 PDT
Is the shift from producing original content to curating it a sign of the times — end times maybe — for media as we’ve known it? In an excellent piece in Advertising Age, Matthew Creamer makes the point: Aggregation, not as a sidelight but as more of a focus, is a mission change for media, and there’s a case for it, to be sure. Time and attention have limits, but the universe of content, it seems, does not. So finding a way to quickly and cleanly deliver relevant news is important. But there

Making sense in Adsense

Tue, 15 Apr 2008 19:55:23 PDT
As my previous blog post says, it doesn’t happen everyday. Here are few of the tricks: 1. Anticipate upcoming big events because google adsense is all about traffic. Watch TV and try to predict which upcoming shows will have mass media appeal. 2. Identify people who has the potential of becoming famous in the future. Example: I knew of a boxer ( Edwin Valero ) who has the skills to beat Paquiao and yet nobody is talking about him because he can’t fight in the US. The term ‘Edwin Valero’ rig

This is a shot from Blackbook’s May issue. Love, love, love the silver shoes. Can someone get behind me on this look? Yes, it’s very Michael Jacksonesque, but something about shiny footware has always gotten my goat. And without socks, this look transcends the typical farce appeal and takes on a life of its own by breaking all rules of shoe etiquette. I’m on the search now for some silverplated stomping gear so if you’ve got some sources, please hit us up.
