I liked the original concept – so this is just a slight tweak. We’ll need to settle on a final version pretty soon, so do me and pay special attention to the part where Geek enumerates the benefits for the listener.

(rock guitar music bed quick fade out.)
ME: Hey geek, listen to this new radio ad I’ve come up with to promote Delaware’s premiere political blog, Delaware liberal dot net …(clears throat.) (sings with rock guitar strum in the style of “Wayne’s World” )“DELAWARE LIBERAL,!! DELAWARE LIBERAL!! DELAWARE LIBERAL,!! DELAWARE LIBERAL!!…What do you think?
Geek: I think it’s stupid.
ME: No it is in your face…and hip. (sings) “DELAWARE LIBERAL,!! DELAWARE LIBERAL!! DELAWARE LIBERAL,!! DELAWARE LIBERAL!!…
Geek: …yeah yeah…NO.. I hate it. It doesn’t talk about all the stories we’ve been breaking:
– like turning up the heat on unaccountable politicians like Harris McDowell and Mike Castle,
– our In State Wind Farm Advocacy
– our investigative reports that go where the New Journal fears to tread
– our guerilla journalism coverage of the general assembly
– or the great community we’ve built up with our fantastic commenters from across Delaware’s political spectrum and contributors like Delaware Dem, Pandora, Cassandra and Delaware’s Hottest Blogger, Donviti.
It doesn’t mention any of that.
ME: Well, no… but it is witty and irreverent like the blog. (sings) “DELAWARE LIBERAL,!! DELAWARE LIBERAL!! DELAWARE LIBERAL,!! DELAWARE LIBERAL!!…
Geek: Would you please stop that.
Me: Okay.
Geek: Thank you.. Visit Delaware liberal dot net ! Still free, and still keep Delaware politicians on notice.
