HP Sponsors Cam'ron parody video on HP of YouTube   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #1441 of 2622 |
WTF is going on here? http://youtube.com/
 
HP has apparently sponsored the Cam'ron parody of the Jay-Z (amongst others) "hands" campaign.  and featured it on the YOUTUBE HOMEPAGE.
 
Clicking to the video's page shows HP owning all prominent banner positions as well.
 
a great way to throw about $200K out the door....
 
can Cam sue HP for slander?
