Sunday Bloody Sunday… by George W. Bush
Mark Chaikelson sent to me over messenger link to this parody video of George W. Bush singing “Sunday Bloody Sunday” to the UN. Quite aside from it being a masterpiece of video editing it highlights the lengths that the public will go to to draw attention to issues they care about.
The paradigm of social media has well and truly turned the world on its head. Previously those in power had the power to give voice and to silence. No longer.
Blogs propel the paradigm of mass socialisation bringing together and flooding opinions into an otherwise assuming society.
And how long before the corporate world starts to see similar, anonymous, class-actions within their walls?
Many factors are pushing society towards smaller looser knit organisations. Many factors are pushing towards greater honesty and openness.
And those secrets of yesteryear? Some will be a bloody bloody mess.
