TV Networks Try A Little 'Blogola'

To Create Buzz, TV Networks Try A Little 'Blogola'

Apparently, in an attempt to get bloggers to say nice things about the upcoming Fall television lineup. bloggers are being showered with gifts including iPods and free gym bags.

Wow. A gym bag. Now we're talking some major swag! I have a closet full of gym bags dating back to the early Pleistocene era. Video iPods? You'd think the last place you'd want to watch a killer new crime drama would be on a screen the size of a television network executive's brain. Small, very small.

But, if there are free trips and junkets to Vegas, bring it on! I'll say nice things about any kinda meaningless crap like a sitcom for a night at Mandalay Bay and a steak dinner.
