More Empowering

We’ve been following UCLA Extension’s venture with Steve Poizner, the fellow who ran against Meg Whitman (and lost) in the 2010 GOP gubernatorial primary.  Up to now, there has been YouTube video PR for the program.  See http://uclafacultyassociation.blogspot.com/2012/07/empowered-to-people-poizner-ucla.html.  As that post noted, we are talking about a rather expensive program, although you get a “free” iPad if you enroll.

Apparently, the empowered.com [http://www.empowered.com/] joint venture is now going to TV advertising, according to Poizner’s emailing service (although the sample TV ad is also on YouTube):

Some long time followers of this blog will remember our Extension posts from back in the day before iPads:
