YouTube took its video-sharing network off to Spain in the not too distant past, and teamed up with a local news station to take advantage of the nation's election of a new prime minister. This was done in a manner similar to YouTube's partnership with CNN for the Q&A sessions held between candidates and users. Weeks after announcing its plans for video sessions to be held in Spain, we get to see the results.
Socialist Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero was oh, so politically correct with his rhetoric that it makes you remember why you always switch to a cable channel when a State of the Union Address cuts into your viewing of Deal or No Deal. But as Jason Webb mentions in a Reuters report, there's more to YouTube Q&A than just the tame questions that the politicians choose to answer. The fact that we get to see all the videos of questions people have addressed to the candidates is just as important.
