Web Media Upstart Caters To ConservativesBy Salena Zito
Tuesday, April 10, 2007
When the public relations gurus at Quantum Communications could not find a conservative new-media network, they did what any frustrated, information-driven businessperson would do.
"We made one," said Charlie Gerow, founder of the Harrisburg-based firm.
Today, Gerow and longtime associate Jeff Lord officially began QubeTV.TV -- a unique video, photograph and social network designed especially for conservatives.
QubeTV was born on the eve of the funeral of Lord's father. While contemplating the life of his father -- a longtime conservative who held Calvin Coolidge's seat on Northampton, Mass., city council -- Lord wondered how he could honor his father through something new and fresh for the stalled conservative political movement. The next morning, he rang Gerow to talk about a "new way to communicate and share conservative politics." more:

Gee, I hope he didn't sketch it out the business plan the funeral program. That's just tacky.
Lord says he's interested in finding "new ways to communicate and share conservative politics." Hmmmm.
So the wars, torture, bribery, page-diddling, cronyism, violations of just about every law and ethical standard, and the general decimation of democracy wasn't enough by itself? They also want a video record of these crimes? Well, I can see a Bloggie in his future. Oh yeah.....
QubeTV Motto: "A place where blockheads can feel at home.":argh:
