"'It was incredible to see the creators interpret the government through the lens of internet culture,' Daks* said. Next, it was off to the White House.... After [a] news conference, Biden ushered the content creators into the Oval Office for an hour-long private meeting.... 'We know people listen to trusted messengers, and as an increasing number of young people turn to Instagram, TikTok and other platforms for news and information, we need to engage with the voices they trust directly,' said Rob Flaherty, the White House director of digital strategy.... 'In all my years in politics, I’ve never seen a single strategy that could flip a state on its own,' said [a] founder of digital consulting firm.... 'TikTok is that strategy — it impacts culture and politics in a way that no other media reaches.'... Kat Wellington, 24, a lifestyle and fashion content creator, said she was previously hesitant to get political on her TikTok account, but... 'This trip helped me make the push to use my platform for that. I don’t want to be afraid to share my genuine beliefs about politics, even if it’s going to upset some people.'"
Writes Taylor Lorenz in "Inside the Dems’ elaborate attempt to woo TikTok influencers/A free trip to D.C., a private chat with Obama and an hour in the Oval Office with Biden: The Democrats are rolling out the red carpet for social media influencers" by Taylor Lorenz (WaPo).
This is giving me a flashback to the run-up to the 2008 presidential election, when Democrats were wrangling bloggers. I wrote:
So I'm a little conflicted about this... because I like to see bloggers use blogging to snag political jobs, [but]... I'm wary about this new activity of wrangling bloggers for the benefit of political candidates. For you bloggers seeking jobs: I hope you get them. But for you bloggers staying in this noble enterprise: Preserve your independence and don't let yourself get manipulated... ... I really was trying to hurt this emerging profession of blogger wrangler. I want bloggers to keep their distance from candidates and not succumb to flattery and seduction. Oh, the candidate actually cares about me, wants to talk to me. It's fine to take advantage of some access, but don't come back like a sucker and blog about how nice the candidate was to you.
So I must say to the young TikTok stars: Don't let them use you. Value your independence. Be you, and say what you think. If you're wowed by politicians, you're lost.
I mean, I wonder what happened to all the bloggers who arrayed themselves around Bill Clinton in 2006:
Where are they now?
