Bootsnall TV's Tony Wheeler Interview - Founder of Lonely Planet
Posted on 2008-02-12 09:38:40 by Bootsnall on YouTube
Worldwide | They wrote: "Bootsnall TV interviews Tony Wheeler from Lonely Planet about his new book, Bad Lands."
I think: As founder of Lonely Planet, Tony Wheeler has a unique perspective. He's been to a lot of places. I like the point that he makes about how the actual place is usually different than the media's portrayal of the place since the media usually focuses on the violence and other bad deeds that make news. This is something that I have always felt.
Bootsnall put on a good show, but I'd like to recommend that they invest in two lavalier microphones and a mixer to take the quality of their audio up a notch. The Sony ECM-55b might be a good choice. It can be purchased at www.bhphotovideo.com. See The Video
