Parody as a tool in social media attack
Since the BP oil rig explosion led to a massive spill in the Gulf of Mexico the Internet has not been shy about venting its frustration:
- Tumblr painted its dashboard black in an effort to raise cash
- Creative agency Jess3 developed a Firefox plugin that aims to black out all mentions of BP across the Web
- The satirical Twitter account @BPGlobalPR has gained a mighty following for its biting commentary.
YouTube users are uploading a steady stream of videos – some better than others – that use humor to express their anger at the disastrous situation.
The team behind UCBComedy shows us exactly what would happen if BP executives spill their coffee:
