Does Print Media have its own version of the Razzies?

Corrections and Clarifications from the Charlotte Observer…

‘A headline in Tuesday’s Carolina Living section incorrectly described the Snuggie blanket as sleeveless. The blanket has sleeves.’

Doh!

… and then there’s this from the ATTRIBUTION FAIL file…

So, I ran across this lovely Snuggie hit piece by John Keller from WBZ. This aired on January 28, 2009. He shows a quick shot of SnuggieSightings.com and our very own Bridget at 1:35 in the video, but he doesn’t mention the site. What’s up with that? He mentions the Snuggie Drinking Game, but sums it up with “Don’t Ask”.

Don't Blink. We appear at 1:35 in the video. And please don't click here. This is an image. This is not the video. I will be able to tell how many people click on this image, thinking it is the video, trying to play it. Don't be one of those people. The video is down yonder. (NOTE TO SELF: first time to use 'yonder' on this site...will not be last, unless hit by bus).

Note to John Keller: If USA Today can mention SnuggieSightings.com (which their article ran the day before your news report. Gee, I wonder where you got your source material for this piece? I’m smelling a News Emmy, John), surely you can say these words. Repeat after me: ‘SNUGGIE SIGHTINGS DOT COM’ (then again, he did not attribute USA Today either…moving on…)

Being a good sport, I will now reference the source material. Be sure to check us out somewhere between 1:35 to 1:36 in this video. I feel like Navin R. Johnson after the new phonebook arrived. With exposure like this, there’s nothing holding back SnuggieSightings.com now! Wahoo! Man, am I pumped! Roll Tape!
