    Youtube/Pulitzer makes (edit) illegal immigration supporting video finalist

    For the backstory, see Shock: Youtube/Pulitzer contest has pro-illegal immigration puff piece as finalist. That same (edit), illegal immigration-supporting video (link) is now one of the five finalists in the Pulitzer competition and is #20 on Youtube's Featured list. Either because of that or because of creative counting, its views have jumped from around 700 a couple days ago to over 60,000 currently.

    This continues a trend with Youtube: they continually promoted the pro-illegal immigration videos from 9500 Liberty and the debate they conducted with CNN featured worthless immigration questions that served to mislead rather than inform.

    If you want to do something about this, go leave comments on the video, and on future Youtube efforts try to undercut their influence with their visitors; for an example, see the comment I ("NoMoreBlatherDotCom") left here.

    There was an interesting article recently regarding Eepy Bird the performance art group which did the Mentos in Diet Cola Act. In it they said that the did not use YouTube there are other video services that pay for viewing based on ads that appear on the margin of the clip. One of them is Revver and the other one they mentioned escapes me at the moment... oh Vimeo but if YouTube is taking a stand contrary to ours we might as well post elsewhere and get some money for further PR efforts.

    I support enforcement and see its lack as bad for the 3rd World as well. Remittances are now mostly spent on consumption not production assets. Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)
