Amanda Sells Out...

After being fired from Rocketboom in July, Amanda set up her own edgy video blog. But the big news today is...she sold out to ABCNews.com! Not only do they make you watch a commercial first, she's turning into the female David Hasselhoff!



UPDATE! Amanda set up a new non-commercial vlog of her own as well. Give Starring Amanda Congdon a try.

Oh, and WOW did this ever ignite a messy message-list war over in videoblogging land.

We'll never really know the truth about what happened during the Rocketboom split, but we DO know that the ABC/AC videoblog is like doody caked on the bottom of your shoe. It's a trite copy of Rocketboom's format...WITH COMMERCIALS!!

Kill me.

Ah missbhavens! Good to have your voice back on the site. I agree. Lousy video format at ABC. She's so tiny in that frame. Why do we need to see so much of the desk? This isn't the evening news on a widescreen TV! Why not make one of your videos and mock Amanda's stock mannerisms - the quick head turn, the paper throwing - and post it here as well as on your own site? We'd at least get a fourth name under the Contributors list after this recent move to Blogger Beta. And by the way, Google is evil. (That's because Google owns Blogger Mr. Hasselhoff.)
