LAist Interview: MobLogic Takes to the Streets
Less than a year after being acquired by CBS Interactive, Wallstrip executive producers Jeff Marks, Adam Elend, and host-producer Lindsay Campbell (interviewed above at the MobLogic launch party this week at SXSWi) have added a second daily video podcast to the mix. MobLogic aims to take daily news and politics to the people, with daily topical summaries and commentary from everyday people-on-the street.
Though based in New York City, MobLogic will be criss-crossing the nation to capture America's take on the culture of news and politics from the people that matter most -- the unsuspecting men, women, and children on the streets of Anytown, U.S.A. We hope to see Lindsay and co. on the streets of LA in the near future.
