Price of a viral video on Yahoo? An old car.
 

This video is featured on the front page of Yahoo for some dating site. The person in the video says he found out his wife is cheating on him, dumps a bunch of manure on his "cheating wife's" car that couldn't be worth more than $1000. He mentions the URL at the beginning, and then mentions the URL at the end. Clear as day marketing propaganda.

And the Yahoo editors didn't pick up on this?

Great marketing, probably getting good joins off that :thumbsup

Yahoo sure has a lot of sheep looking at their content. There's 11,936 comments at the moment. I like this one:

"13 yrs. after having a VASECTOMY, I found birth control pills in her car ! I soon replaced these with sugar pills ! I got out SCOT FREE,,,and she got 2 babies while in her mid- 40s ! !"

:Graucho

Yeah I find it ridiculous how whenever there's a news story... there's always a huge drove of sheep of that topic that comment on the story. If it's a story about GM making a comeback, the comments will inevitably be "It's because America makes the highest quality cars in the world! Support the UAW!" And then if you say something to the contrary, you get downranked a billion times and your comment gets blocked.

Zero objectivity.

Yahoo though i was going to watch that segment with a 30 second advertisement and no skip button?

think again.

lol.,

here is a funny one.

Who is to say Yahoo isn't in on it?

My wife said the same thing. She said it may be part of Yahoo's new plan for profitability. Could be...

A friend of mine also passed out during his first and only parachute jump

He also mentioned the dating site in the beginning and in the end, is he advertising for the car or the site? Which is it? Please tell, I NEED TO KNOW!

imho thats normal, but the reaction of him getting back to normal was awesome.
