Video Killed the Radio (and Blog) Star

While the infamous blogger Byron Crawford gets clowned for a video appearance which revealed him as smiley and soft spoken (kinda like me, actually), it turns out that a whole industry of anonymous trash talkers - America's radio show hosts - are struggling with the shift to online video.

Fat Man Scoop, a radio personality in NY, who also does an online video show, spits:

"People are either going to have to get with the program or get lost. People don’t sit in front of a radio for three hours like they used to. If they don’t hear a song they like, they go to the Internet. That’s where it’s going. It’s getting to the point where you’re going to have to be good at both."

I guess it's time to get out my video camera, eh?
