The saga expanded to airport bans (as proclaimed by both men) and eventually bans from each man's respective state. Even Hillary Clinton got involved. Alas, the feud is still ongoing so Mayor Booker is going to appear on the Tonight Show tonight to try to make amends. Before he does that, he'll be chatting with Jason Pollock on Ashton Kutcher's Ustream channel at 5pm ET today.
Last month, Ashton himself and Mayor Booker talked about social media and the role it had both in Booker's campaign and in how he leads his city. You can see the clip on Ustream.
Social Media Mayor
Like many public figures, Mayor Booker realizes the benefits that social media can provide in helping him not only get his message across, but hear directly back from the people of Newark. He has an active Twitter and Facebook page. Booker also has a blog, though like many of us, he probably finds it difficult to regularly update and uses the power of Twitter instead.
