Controversy!

Wednesday, January 30th, 2008 – running time 13:36
The battle between Scientology and Anonymous makes it way to the Digg Reel, along with the power of hugs, a Photoshop tale of woe, and Google Maps gone wrong.

The battle between Scientologists and a group of hackers and activists called "Anonymous" made it's way to Digg and the Digg video section this week. 8 of the most dugg videos were related to the Anonymous vs. Scientology battle. The most dugg of them all was this creepy "Message to Scientology" with over 5900 diggs. Watch This Video on Digg

Here are some highlights of the many dugg videos on this topic from this week:

Message to Scientology

Anonymous Second Address to Scientology

NBC Group Wants to Destroy Scientology

Scientology Summit DVD Leaked On The Pirate Bay

Anonymous Vs. Scientology Makes TV News

Anonymous Leaks Whole Tom Cruise Movie

Perhaps all this Scientology/Anonymous stuff could be worked out with some hugs. If there was ever reason to believe that, this video with over 3500 diggs would prove it. Watch This Video on Digg

And now, a tale of heartbreak combined with Photoshop and eBay with this video which received over 3200 diggs. Watch This Video on Digg

You can see the complete list of questions and answers from the eBay auction here.

And the final video, with over 6400 diggs for this week shows how Google Maps and Google Street View can lead to interesting results. Watch This Video on Digg

This is great. TRS wasn't that good on the first two episodes but look at it now. I think you guys listened well to our complaints because the show flows much better. Now you just gotta fix that echo.

Major Improvement

Jessica, MAJOR improvement over the first two shows. You seem so much more natural and not like you're reading from a TelePrompTer for every word.

I am glad I hung on and am looking forward to next week.

Pretty good stuff. The Scientology stuff was handled well, and I prefer the "most interesting" approach, rather than showing the entire Top 10 anyway.

But yeah... that echo is quite annoying. How much did you spend on that studio again?

Way better go of it. I might actually watch it now.

Although I do agree Jessica has improved, I'm still not a fan of the show. It seems to me it’s just a video version of digg with the disadvantages that she is picking the videos and viewer comments (both of which you can’t see all of on the show). You could say diggnation does the same, but I don't believe that’s true. With diggnation you’re getting a story that is being discussed which is the most entertaining part to me. Jessica just doesn't add anything to the experience, and anyways isn't there a show on VH1 that does this same exact thing?

It's just a video web round up, nothing ground breaking but at least the links are there if you want to catch the full clip. VH1 has their thing but how many people actually see something on TV and then rush to find the link on the web...better yet how many people would jump on their computer and go to VH1 vs. just typing some keywords into google to look for the vid.

Episode 3 was way better then the previous, but I'm still not a complete believer.

There is no need to analyze each video like diggnation because most of the time the videos won't have much depth to them and are just entertaining. Using the comments to highlight some funny comments is a good way to add to it. I would like to see Jessica talk about some of the topics and share her opinion but only if the story really fits it.
