I feel I'm more qualified than most to make this assertion: Mayor Ron Dellums YouTube page channel is a year late and lousy. Why a year late? Because I'm the person who told the Mayor's communications staff they needed a YouTube channel, among other things. This came at a lunch I had last year with one of Dellums' communcations staffers who would regularly contact me. I had considered writing a proposal for my company to be their new media consultant, but then thought better of it when I realized I may be giving up this blog's ability to write what it pleased unless I contractually asked for it. Then I also pondered that writing such a proposal may just give them basic answers for free. So I pulled back. But over lunch, this YouTube page is one idea I said was basic. But it's not enough to have one, and there's a lot of problems with the channel. For example the video on Dellums speaking at the Cathedral of Christ the Light has only 101 view
