White House Seeks Amateur Videos For Flu PSA - $2,500 Prize
Filed under: In The News, Funny Stuff
Looking for a way to make a few bucks? Handy with a video camera? Worried about swine flu? Then we have an opportunity for you.
The Department of Health and Human Services is asking Americans to make a video public service announcement (PSA) about the H1N1 virus, aka swine flu. The rules are pretty simple: "Create a 0:15, 0:30 or 0:60 second PSA that will inform and motivate people to take steps that will help prevent the spread of H1N1 flu. Make your video fun, smart, and entertaining." All entries must be posted on YouTube.
HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius says that she is "not talking about a boring educational video...This is your chance to be funny." Not sure how they would feel about the numerous swine flu song parodies that are already on YouTube, such as "I've Got The Swine" (based on Johnny Cash's "I Walk The Line") or "I Kissed a Pig" (based on Katy Perry's "I Kissed a Girl"). But hey, for a chance at $2,500, it's worth a shot.

Alex Hroz said...The government only wants us to make amateur videos for the swine flu because it has been the power of amateur video and the internet which has revealed the truth behind swine flu and the swine flu "vaccine."
Everyone is so worried about swine flu because the mainstream media works to keep all of us in fear. What we should be made aware of; the real information, (as opposed to disinformation) is that the so-called swine flu "vaccine" is actually much more dangerous and hazardous to our health than the virus itself.
Our advantage is the speed at which we get word out.
The grassroots spread of this information is urgent, according to Austrian journalist Jane Burgermeister. See her Sept.8, 2009 interview on http://wireofinformation.wordpress.com
