New Pajamas Media Article: “Attention GOP: New Media Is Here To Stay”

by Melissa Clouthier | February 2, 2009 10:41 am

I wrote this to respond to another writer who cautioned Republicans against the new media. I think that’s very bad advice.[1] Here’s a bit of my response:

Social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter provide a means to communicate directly to voters bypassing a self-admittedly biased media. If a politician were told there is a way to reach thousands of people with an unadulterated message in a person’s home without the need to knock on a door or stand before TV cameras, he would eagerly ask how to do it. That’s social media.

Go to the article and read the whole thing!

Follow me on Twitter[2]! Join the new media revolution. I pass along a lot of the latest “inside scoop” for technology, politics, and breaking news. Plus I just chat a lot. I’d like to get to know you.
