#8 Youtube

So, the Justin Bieber movie came out in RedBoxes yesterday, and yes although sad to admit, my roommates and I rented it. I think that his story is absolutely fascinating. It is amazing to see how much time has changed. In the movie, Scooter, the man who discovered Bieber on Youtube, is trying to get people to labels to sign him and every single one of the labels Scooter went to told him that they needed Disney or Nickelodeon. However, Justin Bieber showed them wrong by using the mass media to gain fans and in a year he was able to sell out Madison Square Garden. He revolutionized youtube and in a sense hollywood. Now you see stars like Rebecca Black singing Friday, who isn't even good, becoming famous through youtube and the mass media.
