Book: All the President's Spin

Book: All the President's Spin 08/04/2004 01:47 PM
My former Silicon Alley Reporter colleague Ben Fritz -- who's also co-founder of political-spin-debunker website Spinsanity-- has a new book out. It's a doozy.

Our first book, All the President's Spin: George W. Bush, the Media, and the Truth, goes on sale today... it offers a nonpartisan analysis of the PR-driven deception that has come to define George W. Bush's presidency, chronicling his spin on issues ranging from tax cuts to the war in Iraq. We also put Bush's presidency in perspective by tracing the history of public relations in modern presidential politics; examining how this process has culminated in a presidential campaign in which Bush and John Kerry are both engaging in deceptive PR tactics; and explaining why the media has failed to hold Bush and other politicians accountable for dishonest spin.

Apple products go for a spin

Apple products go for a spin 04/14/2005 04:01 PM
Apple products have begun to show up in all kinds of vehicles making it easy to take them around town using many modes of transportation. From bicycles to BMWs, the iPod can be found making its way onto the road, and the Mac mini has even found its way onto the highway. At the Macworld Conference & Expo in San Francisco this past January, Apple announced it teamed up with Mercedes-Benz USA, Volvo, Nissan, Alfa Romeo and Ferrari to deliver iPod integration with their car stereo systems in 2005. When Mercedes-Benz USA announced its iPod Integration Kit, it became the first automaker to provide full iPod music navigation for drivers to listen to their entire iPod music collection through the car audio system. The integration kit also allows the user to select music by artist, album or playlist using multifunction controls on the steering wheel and the integrated multifunction display on the instrument cluster. BMW and MINI Cooper began providing integrated iPod solutions in 2004, enabling drivers to use iPods in BMW’s 3 Series, Z4 Roadster, X3 and X5 Sports Activity Vehicles and MINI Cooper by plugging the iPod into a cable located in the car’s glove compartment. Apple CEO Steve Jobs stated that one of the next frontiers for a seamless digital music experience is the car since "we all spend a lot of time driving" and the company's solution lets "iPod users enjoy their entire music collection" in their BMW or MINI. “Almost every car company in the world is working to integrate iPod into their cars in 2005,” Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing Philip Schiller said. “iPod customers want to take their entire music collection with them everywhere they go, including their car, so we’re excited to be able to work with so many leading automotive companies to provide customers with integrated solutions.” Following the release of Apple's Mac mini, vehicle restoration service, Classic Restorations, announced plans for installing the pint-sized computer in vehicle dashboards. Back in January, the New York-based company's president Melvin Benzaquen said there would be no standard pricing for the car installations, though past computer installations have cost between $1,500 to $7,000. So far the company has added a Mac mini to a classic 1969 MacNova SS, a Jeep Grand Cherokee, and has given word on its latest restoration project, a Camino. A Mac mini was installed in the i-Car by Miami-based Audio Elite, who integrated the Mac mini into a Lexus. The car features two displays, a USB 2.0 and Firewire hub mounted below the dash, and the Mac mini mounted in a custom arm rest that has air vents and a plexiglas top that reveals the Apple logo. Gadget magazine T3 recently showed off a customised Yamaha EC-02 iPod-modified electric bike. The environmentally-friendly motorbike was custom-built for use with the iPod and features a clear snap-shut case on the top of the bike where the iPod sits snugly. The iPod is controlled through a set of controls positioned on the right handlebar. In addition to all the other cool features, the bike also has a stereo speaker built into the place that the gas tank normally sits. As for bicycles, Marware makes an iPod bike holder that mounts to bike handlebars and can be used with all Marware cases that use the Multidapt clip system. The holder allows the iPod to clip onto the bike handles placing it in clear view, for easy access to the menu and buttons while riding.

The Difference Between Spin And An Angle

The Difference Between Spin And An Angle 02/12/2004 02:44 AM
This week, Techdirt got a lot of attention for pointing out the extraordinarily different takes on a speech by former Dean campaign manager Joe Trippi from blogger s and a reporter from Reuters. If you read the different accounts, you would have sworn they were at entirely different speeches. Lots of websites picked up on that story and linked back to us - but now, former Reuters reporter Jeremy Wagstaff (who writes for Far Eastern Economic Review and WSJ.com - and on his own excellent blog) is taking me to task for calling the Reuters report "spin". He says there's a very important difference between "spin" and an "angle" and points out (absolutely correctly) that a journalist's job isn't necessarily to write up a summary of the entire speech, but to pick out the newsworthy point and write about that. He points to other press coverage of the same speech and notes that they all pick up on a different aspect of the speech. He also gives the standard reporter's excuse about deadlines and how things accidentally "creep into" stories where they don't belong. He points out (once again, correctly) that one of the nice things about blogs is that they give an alternate source for more info and context which the reporters don't do (it's not their job). These are all good points, and worth thinking about - but I still don't take back my original comments. While a reporter's job is to find out what's newsworthy and write about it, that does not mean taking something out of context - which is clearly what was done with that Reuters article. If you listen to the speech, Trippi spends the entire speech talking about what a revolutionary force the internet is when it comes to politics. Whether you believe that or not, if you read the Reuters report, you don't get that impression at all. You get the impression he blamed the internet. Giving people the impression of something that clearly was not being said is not an angle. It's spin (scroll down to spin) - and Reuters should be ashamed.

New Spin on Public vs. Commercial
Networks

New Spin on Public vs. Commercial
Networks 09/14/2004 04:22 PM
Paul Boutin muses in a Slate column about the future debate between commercial wireless networks and municipal networks: He concludes that ultimately cities and corporations will use WiMax but the end results will be different. The corporate networks will run over licensed frequencies. They'll be more reliable and will cost more for end users than city-run networks. The public networks might be free to use but won't have as great coverage as the kind you'd pay for. That's a quite possible scenario. However, I wonder if some municipalities will end up getting burned by Wi-Fi and decide not to do WiMax. Depending on the gear they use, it may not make sense for municipalities to build citywide Wi-Fi networks, as Boutin points out, because of how difficult it is to blanket a city in Wi-Fi. Maybe some cities will try, largely fail, then be reluctant to try WiMax because of the experience. Enough companies may build WiMax networks--using licensed or unlicensed frequencies--that perhaps municipalities won't decide to build their own (although that hasn't stopped cities from building Wi-Fi networks). That would still leave the door open to community networkers to build their own free-to-access WiMax networks, if the price of gear drops low enough. Boutin suggests that cities would do well to try to make deals with the owners of prime WiMax spectrum so local volunteers can build quality networks in underserved areas. However, I find it unlikely that the spectrum owners would do that. The underserved areas are exactly the market that they can best target with the spectrum. The big telcos that own this spectrum haven't been willing to bring lines to underserved, sparsely populated areas because it doesn't pay off. But with wireless, the network is far cheaper to build and could more easily spell profits....
