Newsvine on TV Tonight
March 31st, 2006
Many apologies for the self-promotion, but I’m going to be on the KCTS show “Serious Money” tonight talking about Newsvine and the changing landscape of the journalism world. If you have access to KCTS, it’s going to be on at 8pm Pacific Time. Serious Money is in its 17th season and has hosted such CEOs as Jack Welch of GE, Howard Schultz of Starbucks, and Jonathan Klein of Getty. Economist extraordinaire and Colonial era dead-ringer Louis Rukeyser has also appeared. After the airing, the show should also be available on KCTS’ Streaming Video page, I believe.
I wore make-up too, so let the jokes begin…

Mike wearing makup joke #1
“Which woman would you most like to be? Mike Davidson!”
Looking forward to the broadcast tonight.
Awesome, I’m going to do my best to check this out tonight. Let’s see how nerdy I can sound when my friends ask why I’m glued to the tv on a friday night and I say, “You don’t understand, he started a website. On the internet!” Can’t wait!
I always thought your cheeks were rosy enough. Posh with the make-up.
Awesome. Unfortunately I’m not gigon to be at home tonight to watch. I will how ever hoist a Tito’s and Tonic for you.
Great job Mike and all the people at Newsvine.
When you said you wore makeup…. did you mean more than you usually wear?
You said “let the jokes begin.”
Seriously, congrats on the high profile exposure…. go Newsvine!
Man, how’d they convince you to wear makeup?
Okay, you want to know the scary thing? I actually walked back to the Newsvine headquarters with the makeup still on. Washed it off as soon as I got back though. Can’t provide that sort of ammunition to the Newsvine crew. I’d never hear the end of it.
On the bright side, there was a beautiful PR girl I met in the green room while waiting to do the interview. Suddenly I think Newsvine might need a PR rep. :)
This is great. For folks that are not located in the NW are you going to put it up on YouTube?
Couldn’t notice the make up on my old TV, but the dress was nice!
Can you post a clip?
I thought the interview was great, by the way. Trying to explain to my girlfriend that I in fact got to be a beta tester for what you were talking about! “Oh wow, that’s great Dan.” Yeah… Good job though, and nice glasses.
Just to let you know Mike, I shaved my beard and wore make up that night too! :)
(Editor’s Note: Haha. Very funny. I’d bet a few dollars that you’re posting from somewhere in Missouri though. :) )
Hey Mike,
Don’t see you in any of the episodes on KCTS’ Streaming Video page, is it on there?
Looks like they have three or four more episodes to put online before they get to Mike’s one.
I have had some trouble finding it as well a follow up post to the link would be just awsome would love to see you on t.v.
Yeah, tell em to get that episode up already ;)
I can’t wait to see this when it’s up and running….Update the article when you got some streaming video!
