Virage & C-SPAN Team Up to Deliver Campaign 2000 Video Search Engine
Partnership Provides Voters with Unfiltered Access to U.S. Presidential Campaign Via the Web New York City-Virage, Inc. of San Mateo, Calif. and C-SPAN today announced that they are teaming up to create a video search engine dedicated to the upcoming presidential elections. This site will contain a comprehensive streaming video collection of presidential candidates on the campaign trail delivering speeches, participating in debates, holding press conferences and appearing at party fundraisers. The Campaign 2000 Video Search Engine will be available on multiple Internet destinations starting in August 1999 and will be updated continuously throughout the upcoming primaries and general elections. This announcement was made during the Streaming Media East '99 Conference and Exhibition in New York City.
"C-SPAN's goal has always been to provide our audience with unfiltered access to forums where public policy is discussed," said Rob Kennedy, executive vice president, C-SPAN. "Our partnership with Virage makes it possible for us to provide our audience new ways to access our extensive coverage of the campaign process. The Campaign 2000 Video Search Engine gives users on-demand access to the candidates and their positions throughout the electoral process." The Campaign 2000 Video Search Engine will utilize Virage Interactive services to provide simple, search engine-style access to the breadth and depth of programming compiled on C-SPAN as the network follows the candidates on the campaign trail. Anyone with access to a Web browser will be able to search the campaign footage by keywords of their choice, which could include candidate, party, campaign issue or location. For example, Internet users will be able to search for and view speeches by topics such as taxes, gun control, abortion, education or foreign policy. Users will also be able to compare and contrast statements made by a candidate as he or she speaks to voters in different regions of the country. In addition the site will allow users to track a candidate's position on a topic during the course of the campaign season.
"We're thrilled to be working with C-SPAN on such a monumental event," said Paul Lego, CEO of Virage. "If there's one thing that Democrats and Republicans can agree on, it's that broader access to information can only improve a free election process. The Internet has always been about making more information available to more people. The Campaign 2000 Video Search Engine will set the record straight on the road to the White House." The Campaign 2000 Video Search Engine will be part of C-SPAN's broader Campaign 2000 coverage, which continues throughout the presidential elections in November of 2000 and concludes on the Inauguration in January 2001. Voters and all interested citizens of the world will be able to access the Campaign 2000 Video Search Engine through a variety of Internet sites including C-SPAN.org.
