<b>Media thinks there audience is dumb</b></p>
<p>I just saw a local newscast that was warning people that during a storm the most dangerous part was the wind. <br />The stat quoted for this was that in 20 years 7 people had died in Georgia and North Carolina from fallen trees. </p>
<p>Now I don&#39;t know about you but that seams awful low. They presented the facts but used fonts, colors, and hype to twist the facts into a good way to keep you indoors and watching tv. </p>
<p>Meh <br />Iftttb<br/></p>

<p>I have been chatting up the #GoogleGSO thread this morning after hearing the JoshInTheBox Google Song on <a href="http://www.1075kzl.com/pages/3692158.php">1075KZL </a>this morning.<br />
Play it here:<br />
<object height="17" width="160" id="audioplayer1" data="http://imgsrv.1075kzl.com/image/single_flash_player/audio_player.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"><param value="http://imgsrv.1075kzl.com/image/single_flash_player/audio_player.swf" name="movie" /><param value="soundFile=http://podcast.1075kzl.com/wkzl/2236993.mp3" name="FlashVars" /><param value="high" name="quality" /><param value="false" name="menu" /><param value="transparent" name="wmode" /></object></p>
<p>It seams like there is a lot of discomfort around how the city of Greensboro is handling the marketing campaign to try and lure Google into our town. First they abandon their 1,400 follower twitter account in order to create a new branded one instead of simply using a hash-tag, and then they pay $10,000 for <a href="http://www.rlfcommunications.com/">RLF</a> to build a wordpress site, which is Google&#8217;s competitor for blogspot. when there already where good standing grass roots movements like <a href="http://www.google4gso.com/">http://www.google4gso.com/</a>, and the twitter hashtag #GoogleGSO on twitter. </p>
<p>I hope we get it, it would mean a lot to our community but if Greensboro as a city is going to make these kind of basic mistakes on  a marketing campaign we made need to look for better business leaders to help us next election season. </p>
<p>One thing I will give them credit for is the google crate&#8230; that is awesome <img src='http://dlbates.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Thanks<br />
