LonelyGirl 15's Cover Is Blown
The biggest question in the blogosphere in the past week, after the HP scandal and the Facebook debacle, was "Is LonelyGirl 15 real?".  If you don't know who she is, you're probably not alone.  However, to the 27,555 subscribers of her videos on YouTube, their 2.3 million video views were misspent. 

The videos that featured a cute teenage girl who used her video blog as a way to cope with her average life.  However, apparently Bree, the homeschooled teen depicted in the videos, was really not a user-created production.  In fact, the videos were probably created by Hollywood's Creative Artists Agency.  Last week some cyber-sleuths determined that emails sent by the teenager were actually originating from the Agency.

In a world where authenticity is key, these foiled attempts to generate buzz only brands your company as one who can't be trusted.
