How To Make a Viral Video
Wednesday, November 02, 2011 - 01:41 PM
Jon Ronson is one of our favorite journalists -- he wrote a very good book about extremists called Them, one of his books was turned into the movie The Men Who Stare at Goats, and he's done some great radio stories for This American Life. He's working on an online documentary called Escape and Control, about people who try to control this internet.
This week's installment is good -- it's about about Patrice Wilson, the hitmaker behind the Rebecca Black song Friday. Jon Ronson gets Patrice to write him a song that he thinks will be a viral hit.
