For years we’ve been talking about the increasing levels mistrust consumers have for the media, now we have data to show that it has reached an all-time high. The Gallup poll people published a report yesterday that shows 57% of Americans now have little or no trust in the mass media. This is the highest level on record.

A Different Type of “Hive” Mentality
Tuesday, May 6th, 2008On Memorial Day weekend, the Hallmark Channel is going to air a mini-series titled Shark Swarm (click that link to see the trailer), a genre-loyal movie about (you guessed it) killer sharks. But this movie is relevant to BzzAgent for two reasons.
Reason one: The sharks attack in swarms, much like bees.
Reason two: My brother, Matthew, wrote it (with his writing partner).
This is wildly exciting for me, and the series is going to be great (the uncut DVD comes out the following week). So if anyone is interested in shark movies or curious about how cool my brother is, check it out. And now for the most overused phrase in marketing: if you don’t get the Hallmark Channel, contact your cable operator.
