MediaGuardian Partners with Viral Video Chart

The MediaGuardian is syndicating our weekly video chart and today they launched their own version of the chart on the Organ Grinder blog. There's a short news piece online about the launch of the chart and a little advert in the print paper today, which I'll scan in when I get chance.

There was also a story in today's Guardian about Michael Richards hiring a PR agent to try to save his career in the aftermath of his awful racist rant at an LA comedy club. It mentions that the amateur video footage first appeared on TMZ, but it'd be nice to see  a nod to YouTube's role in the dissemination, where versions of the video have been watched over a million times. We've detected 243 bloggers linking to the two most popular versions of this video on YouTube - the biggest of which reached number 1 in Wednesday's Viral Video Chart.
