John McCain's Twitterview

George Stephanopolous, from ABC will interview senator John McCain using twitter on Tuesday. I think this is so interesting! Like the article said,politicians are known for being long-winded, thus it will be interesting to see how the interviewer and interviewee use this word limit and how good he interview will actually be. I also thought this was interesting because so many criticized John McCain for not being more techno-savvy and using social media to his advantage. Clearly, Obama's facebook, twitter, and other social media accounts were just an added benefit to his campaign. McCain conducted a pretty basic campaign, so it will be very interesting since he will be the first to be interviewed via twitter. I wonder if this will become a new trend? However, how will viewers find enjoyment in this interview? Thats part of broadcast journalism- actually watching the interview being conducted. I will be interested to see how it all goes!
