Ashton Kutcher Campaign Rally in front of CNN Building

[soozin511]

wooow i finally got what aplusk means...

[mechanicalhornbird]

Ashton reminds me of an uneducated fool. He's never appealed to me in looks, personality, and definitely not in acting.

[franz909]

I get it REAL news and information doesn't matter anymore , bcs the the hip black guy , the cute cheerleaders tell me so .

Awesome that Rick Sanchez/CNN thinks reading email is news and informing people , saves me from thinking about real stories that good harm us .

You know illegal wire tapping , ATT & Verizon in cahoots with Gov. Intel , to spy on americans email & phone calls...hey , lets Twitter , lets Twitter ,.

[Tamfict23]

was that the chocolate rain guy at 0:44?

[FoenixRight]

Personally I think twitter is retarded. But I will say that I find it entertaining that Ashton was able to beat CNN in this competition.

[GEORGETOWN93]

Ashton  is a publicity hound,ask his model buddies!

[stickhrk]

isnt the first guy they give a leaflet to the guy from dexter

[MeGorReal]

Seriously, I will pay 1000000 dollars to the first person to state a valid fucking purpose for all this shit reguarding twitter and the kutcher dude. ITS GETTING REALLY FUCKING ANNOYING.

[chiliconcarne2006]

idiots!

Get a fucken job, or another hobby.

[verycoldice2]

kutcher...doesn't that guy have better things to do and try to help the world by doing more useful?

[Gargazok]

well he used to be an actor...

Wait... no that 70's show didn't require acting.

[RecruiterGreig]

Excellent thought leadership from Ashton, he is a great voice for the power of Social Media BUT he needs to practice what he preaches and follow back his fans, he only follows 80 people on Twitter which is a slap in the face to all his fans and followers.

Social Media is about 2 way communication. I encourage you to press on Ashton but practice what you preach.

[DunderMifflinfinity2]

martin luther king-great voice of power

ashton kutcher-looking for attention on twitter

[Ahmali40]

you guys are so serious this takes away from all the S**t in this world we need a little lightheartedness. If you don't like Ashton why are you watching the videos. And if you were really watching you would know that he also donated money to get 100,000 nets for malaria. That is a good cause @maggiewhy!!!!!!

[ReligulousAoR9]

douchebag won the race

[TheDiamondFactory]

u guys r losers

[badhand1]

I think the celebrities all have stock in this stupid twitter thing, otherwise why would they all be behind it so much with all the free advertising and publicity.

Get a life people, put this same energy into something good, helpful and positive .....losers

[myjunk636lavieboheme]

ummm...he did! he donated a large amount of mosquito nets and money to malaria no more....what else do u want? he can't save the whole world, but he is helping...he's using twitter for a good thing!

[badhand1]

Whatever,,he is using it for the same think most vapid Hollywood types do...for his own publicity and advancement. He could have just as easily and privately given the nets, which costs like 40 cents a piece when bought from China.

[myjunk636lavieboheme]

yes but it's not like he gave 2 nets...he wrote a nice check for $100,000 which in this economy is huge...not only that...but he got cnn to match that as well as oprah and other celebrities....and i have yet to see a post from him on twitter that has to do with publicitiy...it's more the fun things in life....like this which he is doing to get things in the news that are happy instead of the horrible things we hear about everyday...he's trying to add some light-hearted things to the world

[DunderMifflinfinity2]

exactly!

[foreverdamagED]

<3 ashton

[LVHAPPY1]

OMG LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!! Too funny!! :-D

[postshanna]

ashton kuttcher isnt even a real celebrity

[XunMakel]

"IF" he wasn't... he IS now!!

[yatabazah]

Loserdoms.

[DomQ324]

this is HILARIOUS and SUPER AWESOME! I <3 it!

[maggiewhy]

This is clearly a point of people having too much time on their hands. Maybe volunteering to give this said time to a charity would make more of an impression.

[Mivla83]

O. M. G. Crazyness! lol

[RyKey2201]

we did it!! :D

ashton won *yay*

[jayinsac]

Now you can follow @someidiot

[33664045]

HE WON!

[jafo818]

Congrats Ashton!

[Himemiya613]

apparently he won

[clubbeatsblog]

oh He Won!

[PhotoBugPhotos]

I love his twits, he's got a great head on his shoulders and he's doing this for charity! Follow him! Just last night he said he'd rather drive on roads with potholes than fire teachers in CA.

[kiwigirlnz03]

hahaha the bird have twitter!! lmao

[perkelation]

it should be "FOLLOW @aplusk" or "TEXT FOLLOW APLUSK TO 40404"

[angiinavagiina]

omg, i love ashton i'm already following him like 6 hours ago <3

i made a twitter account just for him lol

[Sconz32]

Ashton's a faggot.

[PenaltyKillah]

It's rare to see an actual celebrity demoting himself to an Internet celebrity.

[OfficialDjScotty]

he promoting not demoting...

I like Ashton alot more after following him on Twitter, and now I'm watching him live on Ustream... He seems alot cooler than I had originally thought

[PenaltyKillah]

Heck, we all thought he was cool when he was doing the punk'd thing to celebs...

[Licorece]

OMG!

[PenaltyKillah]

I see spambots, tweenies, and every other citizen of Web 2.0 is in the process of forcing Twitter a premature org...

Like Lord of the Rings, deviantART, and organic evolution... say goodbye to another genuinity!

[HifromRobin]

This folks are doing a Great job. I have done my best all day to get off CNNban BUT it will not remove me.

[luv2begirly]

It did the same to me. After the 4th or 5th try it did let me though. I was beginning to think that they freezed all unfollows until the competition was over. It's getting crazy!

[deaf2silence]

you guys are fucking rediculous!!!

[LayAllYourLoveOnMe]

lol

[jayinsac]

Tpain should be promoting his own twitter

...y'know...you could have helped more by staying home and creating fake twitter accounts to follow @aplusk

[tinka1971]

[BraiNiraj]

nice job.. me following too

[austinn382]

@aplusk <---- follow

[UJSupanova]

i just clicked on his twitter and it said he had 1,984,382 followers, i refreshed it and it went down to 992,215. wtf is that about?

[Mozartrules]

cnn= certainly nothing new

[qsays]

It's just sort of disappointing - a street team to beat other people to a million followers? Doesn't matter if "battling malaria" is ostensibly the cause of it, aren't there better things to be doing?

I'm just not sure, in the future, if we are going to be following peer media, if this is the direction we want to go.

Concerned for us!

[figuemoino]

@aplusk!!!  FOLLOW!!!!!!!!!!!

[AquSon]

Wow, all of this publicity and Twitter didn't have to spend a dime. Talk about Win Win for all involved.

[bradharrelson]

Twitter has no business plan. Twitter was popular before Ashton and you retards following him.

[vashnagel]

Ashton, instead of this ridiculous contest, just donate the mosquito nets behind the scenes. You can't be that much of an attention whore.

[sleepysonic]

haha this is hilarious.

YES we don't want some crumby news channel to be the first to a million! go ash!

[imasleepviking]

seriously, do it, follow @aplusk

[aldoc]

sick!

[ocamcaro]

so funny

[lexiejosmiles]

AplusK ((:

[burnviktm]

I actually called my sister out of state and told her to follow him...

[willycosme]

Good luck A + K :D

[MitchmastaNZ]

[Jackholee]

[RevGreen]

[MJAE020396]

[feanorack]

If those girls came up to me on the street, I'd do anything they asked.

[JCLONINGER1976]

Go Ashton! @PrometheusIV and all techies are behind you!!!

[johnfrusciante2005]

This race is awesome! hahaha

[bradharrelson]

I guess you have to be 12 years old to think Ashton Kutcher is still relevant.

[brittanynoel22]

And what the fuck do you do with your life to be relevant?

[Valentinebabi23]

Go @apulsk!!!

[deathboxproductions]

[CarissaAtreyu]

Go Ashton; i follow you!

[carol66847]

go  Ashton

[bradharrelson]

So stupid. Ashton is worthless.

[addicted2pierre]

so Charity is worthless ?

[bradharrelson]

You can help with non-profits without having a contest.

FYI: Charitable giving is down across the board due to the recession, so give anything you can to your community non-profits.

[mrdeleted]

It is more then that, it is a fun project. I has been interesting to watch.

[addicted2pierre]

even if he would of lost he would of donated anyway , FYI

having a contest just makes giving to a charity or non-profit, a little more interesting. People do contests all the time for charity all the time. It may not be recently but they have.

[ANGRYMAN1234567]

you cnn bitch

[Jodante]

@cnnbrk rules

[constantlaughter]

Come on Ashton!

[TheCrisisKing]

CMON ASHTON
