A picture named trippi.jpgI just watched the CNN special on Joe Trippi. One thing stood out, if they believed in the Internet why didn't they use the Web to pump out the video that CNN wasn't showing? What I saw briefly, ironically on CNN, was very compelling. Didn't they get that they had another channel to communicate with voters. Word of mouth might have carried their point of view. At least they could have tried. If they trusted voters they would have ignored what the press and the other candidates and continued to go direct. It's also clear they peaked too soon. He won. But then, what did he win? With a year to go before the election, in late 2003, he won the right to be the guy everyone else targeted. It's the same problem Kerry has now. Too much time with nothing to do but lose. (The best defense is to create a new flow of information, to keep the news networks from driving you down the predictable road.) Permanent link to this item in the archive.
