Michael Moore Parody Shows Power of Video

Regular readers know that I strongly believe that one should use the right medium for the message you are communicating.  That is after all one of the huge underlying themes of The New Media Cocktail.

My friend Doug Simon demonstrates this aptly on his video blog with a very entertaining parody of Michael Moore.  Now, Doug and I don't agree on politics, but the video clearly communicates his message: that he's a big fan of Michael Moore, but feels that Moore's actions helped elect George Bush in 2000.

It's worth watching regardless of your politics.  At a minimum you should be entertained, and hopefully you will agree that the medium was perfect for this message.
