The Biology of Story: hope, fear and the best political stories

I participated in this documentary quite some time ago, and then (to be honest) sort of forgot about it. I was only reminded of my participation, this morning, when the Biology of Story folks tweeted about it. I then saw these clips for the first time.

They felt, and I think they are probably right, that some of the things I talk about in the clips are relevant to today’s historic events. Check ’em out and tell me what you think.

Bottom line: Hillary’s images were all positive; she was all about hope. Trump’s were all negative; he was all about fear.

Today, he will pay the price for that.


Kinsella vs. Ford on CITY-TV!

If you’re a regular on Canada’s Best-Loved Political Website™ – and you of course are – you’re a hack, and you’ll probably be running standard deviation models on your VEP data, and watching CNN. 

But if you want to have fun between 9 and 11, you should tune in to Your Clinton-loving Humble Narrator as he takes on Trumpist Doug Ford on CITY!

The deets:

Livestream 3: FORD OR AGAINST (9 p.m. to 11 p.m.) They have some of the most polarizing views in the 6ix. Staunch Trump supporter Doug Ford and Liberal enthusiast/Hillary fan Warren Kinsella will go head-to-head in an epic battle of the titans as they debate election results, discuss this crazy campaign, and fight over the remote. Avery Haines moderates what’s sure to be a hilarious perspective on this historic night.
