One of the earliest digital entrepreneurs, Drew Curtis built Fark.com into a hugely popular news aggregation site to rival Huffington Post, Drudge Report and Yahoo. Now he’s set his sights on a new challenge: an upstart independent campaign for governor of Kentucky, running on a platform of getting money out of politics, data-driven policy making and adopting best practices from other states’ experiences. Does he really have a chance?In this interview, Curtis and The Young Turks’ Cenk Uygur discuss:- What, exactly, “Fark” means anyway- How idiotic non-news has come to dominate the mainstream news media- Whether the electorate is primed for a candidate who’s not about “business as usual”- Massive government corruption that’s hidden in plain sight- Can a gubernatorial candidate win by admitting that his/her state is not number one?- How fact-and-data-based governance would function- Curtis’ chances of breaking up the two-party duopoly in Kentucky and across the countryCheck out the Drew Curtis for Governor campaign online at www.drewcurtis.com Like this interview?
