Citizentube Interview: Baratunde Thurston of The Onion

Google and the National Journal sponsored an event on 6/11/2008 called, "The 21st Century Campaign". Experts gathered to discuss the innovative ways that campaigns, citizens, and the media are using the web in the 2008 election.

One of those experts was Baratunde Thurston, Web Editor of The Onion. Citizentube's Olivia Ma caught up with him for this short interview.

I think humor when in the political campaigns (though good for the soul), is used to avoid addressing the real meat and potato issues. For example: poverty, homelessness, crime, unemployment and even rascism in America.
