Comcast (CMCSA) has signed an deal with also-ran social network Facebook to allow independent film makers to have their content seen on TV. Judges at Facebook will select the best videos to run on Comcast’s video on demand system.
Facebook needs something to promote its flagging service which has fallen well behind user created sites like YouTube and MySpace. Turning to independent film makers is probably not the ticket.
There is a reason they are "independent" and not "commercial".. No one wants to see their films.
