MoveOn.org Takes on the Hollywood Studios

[alanajoli]

MoveOn.org has been in my camp recently, and I love the work they're doing. First, they took on Facebook's pretty bad privacy policy decision and won. Now they're rooting for the writers by hosting a petition to bring back The Daily Show. Knowing how much media they manage to get, I can only think that this is a good thing.

Besides that, I went to college with Eli Pariser, who is one of the top guys at MoveOn. We were in creative writing classes together. So it makes me giggle that now we're both supporting the writers: him with a huge grass roots organization, and me with my little blog. :)

Here's the link to MoveOn's petition to bring back The Daily Show.

Working with MoveOn seems like the anti-royalists working with the Maoists against the Royalists in Nepal. (MoveOn being the Maoists here.) It is not a question of will they betray you, but when will they betray you.
