The clock strikes 14:55 on Obamagirl
Next New Networks, the online-video startup, just acquired Barelypolitical.com, best known for the video "I Got a Crush ... On Obama" by the performer "Obamagirl." The site's oeuvre also includes the lines, "He whipped out his iPhone / and started to play / I told him I really / Don't get down that way." No word on how much the "microtelevision network" paid. Anybody want to tell us how much 3.9 million views on YouTube will get you these days?
