okay, so I knew the revolution would be video

Everybody’s talking about YouTube being the biggest thing ever to hit politics. Maybe yes, maybe no. It sure is causing a stir.

Way back when (in March 2006), I noted:

The notion of an “information war” is not limited to the battlefield of the Middle East. Increasingly, politics will be fought through PR-Bordering-on-Propaganda.

I was talking about the use of documentaries as political propaganda. The NYT’s David Carr had a piece on this too (after me, I should note).

Do I at least get credit for getting the medium (video) right? I mean, who the hell could have predicted YouTube?

or PrezVid?
