NT Greens uranium mine election appeal

Bob Brown launched an online campaign on video internet site YouTube. The Greens hope to gain National support for the fight against uranium exploration at Angela and Pamela uranium sites 21km from Alice springs by spreading their message 'virally'.




Greens candidate for Braitling, Jane Clark who produced the clip together with local young film maker Curtis Lee Marriot said, "Viral marketing is the term used when people forward a message to all their online 'friends' and request that their friends do the same. In this way many thousands of people will be able to view the video clip in a short time. The Territory Labor government have called a snap election one year early and we therefore have to use every means possible to ensure our important message is heard."
