Techcrunch is reporting that WallStrip, the satiric corporate video blog has been purchased by CBS for $5 million. Apparently the Big Media network thinks Wallstrip's host Lindsay Campbell is the next Amanda Congdon. They are apparently buying Wallstrip for no other reason but to get Lindsay out of her contract.
Well, this may be a good thing. I just recently discovered Wallstrip and could find nothing funny or redeeming about the content. To me, Lindsay lacks both Amanda's sense of timing and edginess. Even if she did, and CBS ponied up five big ones for the next Amanda Congdon, why wouldn't people just watch the original?
