The MediaSquat: Michael Jackson Almost Crashed the Internet

September 21st, 2009 Comments

This entry is part 1 of 1 in the series podcast

A segment that I wrote and produced for The Media Squat with Douglas Rushkoff on WFMU 91.1 FM on Michael Jackson as media star and hacker. Hopefully, they’ll be a weekly thing.

Also, Douglas has an interesting conversation with Paul Krassner that touches on how issue oriented satire has changed over time from Lenny Bruce to Jon Stewart, conspiracy theories in the real world and Krassner’s new book Who’s to Say What’s Obscene:Politics, Culture & Comedy in America Today.

Please listen to the entire show.  The segment below runs five minutes.
