Should AOL Buy Facebook?

Loren Feldman of 1938 media has made a public plea to AOL CEO and Chairman Tim Armstrong urging him to buy Facebook. Calling Mark Zuckerberg an asshole who can’t be trusted and who treats people’s data like “chips in some bullshit poker game,” Feldman argues AOL is a brand that still means something and was known for its simplicity and its privacy, something that’s currently dogging Facebook.

Feldman says Armstrong should go on TV and plead his case to the American public and educate them about what’s going on with Facebook and why it would be better under the AOL umbrella.

If you’re into alternative opinions, give this video a watch. You won’t be disappointed.
