NEW YORK, NY (MMD Newswire) February 25, 2009 -- As post-Oscar buzz fades and Americans get back to everyday concerns about the state of the economy, one controversial media expert is encouraging more people to pursue fame.

David Seaman, author of Dirty Little Secrets of Buzz and frequent guest on television and radio programs, claims that a bad economic climate makes it easier to become well-known.

"If you have a passion of any kind, or a small business or band, now is the time to breakthrough. The environment for a job seeker is admittedly atrocious right now, but the environment for a fame-seeker is excellent."

Seaman points to a recent Nielsen report stating that Americans are watching more TV and consuming more online content than ever before.

"People are depressed and bored right now. If you can find a way to intrigue them momentarily on YouTube, or to catch a local TV producer's eye with a mildly interesting stunt, overnight fame could be yours for the taking."

Dirty Little Secrets of Buzz, the bestselling guide to Web fame, is out in paperback nationwide at Barnes & Noble, Borders, and online.
Readers in Canada can find the book on shelves at most Chapters/Indigo locations.
