"Netflix Relief Fund" Video Parody
"Netflix has raised their prices. This is literally the worst thing that has ever happened to White people."
Jason Alexander stars in "Netflix Relief Fund," a video poking fun at customers' reactions to Netflix's recent price increase. (See story.) Comparing Netflix to Hitler, Alexander says that "tears are falling all over MacBook Pros and Pier One throw pillows all across this country today."
Discussion Starters:
- How do you think this video came about? Who would have a stake in creating a parody like this?
- If you were Netflix's VP of corporate communication, what, if anything, would you do in response to this video? Before you answer, consider the heated customer reaction to the price increases over the past two weeks.
