''Al Gore's Penguin Army'' is a two-minute long video posted on YouTube on May 24, 2006, spoofing Al Gore and his movie ''An Inconvenient Truth''.〔 There is evidence that the video is a product of astroturfing. Despite all appearances of being an amateur production, ''The Wall Street Journal'' discovered that the author of the video was using "a computer registered to DCI Group", a public relations and lobbying firm〔("Where Did That Video Spoofing Gore's Film Come From, by Antonio Regalado and Dionne Searcey" ) "Wall Street Journal"〕 led exclusively by Republican party officials.〔(DCI Group "Our People" page )〕 At the time the video was made, DCI's clients included General Motors and ExxonMobil. DCI has refused to comment on its involvement with the video.〔http://www.opensecrets.org/lobbyists/firm_reports.asp?txtname=DCI+Group&year=2005〕 ==Synopsis== An umbrella-wielding penguin with the face of Al Gore is shown leading a group of smaller penguins into an ice cave/lecture hall. Al Gore gives a slide show presentation entitled "Overview of Global Warming". The penguins watching become bored and fall asleep. At the end of the presentation, Al Gore opens and twirls his umbrella, which has a spiral pattern. The twirling of the umbrella hypnotizes the penguins. The scene changes to the "Red State Theater". Large crowds of people/penguins are shown going to see ''X-Men: The Last Stand'', while only three penguins go to see ''An Inconvenient Truth''. The scene cuts back to Gore in an ice cave/lecture hall with sleeping penguins. Al Gore states "You must take action to stop global warming", oblivious to his sleeping audience. The last scene is of a shark leaping up in the ice cave and snatching a lone penguin, followed by the words "The End" on a black screen. Al Gore abruptly pops up and again uses his umbrella at the screen, cackling. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Al Gore's Penguin Army」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
