I've long been thinking that UGC is poised to earn some respect as a potential media platform, and this contest from MySpace and NBC is some evidence of that. The contest offers a prize of a free trip to one of the two conventions to act as a journalist on the NBC team. How cool is that! The folks at MSNBC's Morning Joe are to act as judges -- if you aren't too familiar with the Morning Joe, check out the integrity of one of their anchors when asked to lead with a Paris Hilton story.
Morning Joe is an odd show, so it is only natural that they would judge this delightfully odd contest.
This thing is getting hyped six ways to Sunday on MSNBC so I spect it'll be big Big BIG!
Thanks for reading, and don't forget to write.
