StratPost in the News for Rafael video story

A story done by StratPost called Rafael’s innovative video marketing for India is making news around the world, with the Israeli arms company Rafael’s video uploaded by StratPost becoming fairly popular on the internet.

So much so that blogs like Citizentube, defense industry watchers like Wired’s Danger Room Blog, Forecast Highs and the DC gossip blog Wonkette have been talking about it. So too has mens lifestyle website Men’s XP.

But the StratPost story has also made news with the New York Times, with Ronald Mackey writing about it in the blog The Lede.

The promotional video was produced by the Israeli arms company Rafael and aired at Aero India 2009 held in Bangalore last month. The video has been derided by some commentators as badly produced and virtually all consider it invariably funny.
