I recently was strolling around the New York Times website, and found many interesting people who know quite a lot about movies. Such as the carpetbagger, originally carpetbaggers were what southerners named northerners when they moved to the south during the reconstruction period. Now, in modern times, carpetbagger is used for politicians who run for a state that they have no affiliation with. I guess you can say that David Carr (The man you see on the videos) is essentially a carpetbagger. Before making this blog he was a business writer, and now he is doing something that he really didn't have much affiliation with. Carr, goes around to premiers, watches the movies, and shares what he feels about it. Essentially, he's a movie critic, but mostly shares his idea of the winners for the Oscars and for other such awards. Although he sounds like he smoked many cigarettes and drank a lot of coffee in his day, he does know what he's doing. So, if you would like to become a video blogger like David Carr, watch him, a lot.
