The iHeartMedia Why I’m Voting campaign has enlisted the aid of musicians, athletes, cultural influencers and others to share what matters to them the most in the upcoming election season. Listeners will also be able to submit there reasons for voting.
Why I’m Voting will run across all of iHeartMedia platforms and markets through election day November 5. Listeners will be invited to submit their own 20 second or less audio or video message at iheartradio.com/vote.
“With voter turnout expected to hit record numbers on Election Day, ‘Why I’m Voting’ presents a rare opportunity for people of all backgrounds and beliefs to have their voices heard by millions of their fellow Americans before we cast our votes in November,” said John Sykes, President of Entertainment Enterprises for iHeartMedia.
A special podcast series featuring artists and celebrities is also underway. According to iHeart the series will feature personal, emotional and heartfelt stories behind why showing up to the ballot box means so much.
So IHeartless has enlisted non-essential people. When will media and entertainment ever figure out that “regular” people are only interested in being entertained by these otherwise dimwitted want to be demigods. Yeah probably works on some teens but otherwise it is a turn off for the rest when athletes, singers and actors preach to the “little people”. I think most people are smart enough to understand they are paid mouth pieces and you might be able to sing and dance and score a touchdown but more than likely you are also as dumb as a box of rocks. Just entertain, dance monkeys dance.
