A Company Asked Patton Oswalt to Tweet About Popular Brands, and It Blew Up in Their Face
Friday afternoon, a company called Brander solicited comedian Patton Oswalt via Twitter to ask him to tweet about products they represent, and Oswalt ended up having a lot of fun with it. He went on a tear making fun of the company and their strategy with a series of tweets that amassed hundreds of retweets and attention from the press. You’d think it’d be enough to shame Brander into not publicly asking comedians to tweet about brands for them, but they’re still at it apparently.
Check out the full set of tweets below:
