Writers Strike May Lead To A Migration To The Internet - According To Main Stream News
November 6th, 2007 Posted in Innovation & Creativity, News
Main Stream news today (Rogers 680 News to be exact) is reporting that because of the writers strike movie and television viewers may shift to the Internet for their daily dose of entertainment.
If that happens, and I am sure it will, the writers will too! This news is a great supporting example of my prediction that this writers strike will give on-line content a boost! Sites such as Heavy.com and Will Ferrel’s FunnyOrDie.com will likely see a surge in traffic over the next several days.
