Fun With YouTube: Warning To Scientology?
1 Comments Ryan Welton on Saturday, January 26, 2008 at 12:11 PM.If you haven't seen it yet, it's the video everybody is talking about this week. It's an "anonymous" video posted to YouTube declaring war on Scientology.
The group calls itself "Legion," and they express an intention to destroy Scientology. The video itself is eerie, and I'd love the Sooners to adopt this theme each October when it comes time to play Texas.
We are Oklahoma. And we have come to destroy you.
However, I really don't think this video is a teenage prank. I think this is the real deal Holyfield, and I'll tell you why. I've been receiving e-mail about this in the newsroom for months, like an advanced notice that this is coming.
The video could be associated with a movie.
The video could be associated with "hackers," who have no real ability to do anything but mess with the organization's IT systems.
The video could be the work of an evangelical group.
Who knows. However, the video is a great example of viral messaging, and I'm very curious as to what comes next.
You know what... I actually saw the video yesterday on Perez Hilton's site. It is very creepy.
