- 1:45Social media influencers take on the DNCReuters VideosSTORY: For the first time ever, the DNC has given credentials – usually reserved for traditional press – to social media personalities. "Well, I'm a content creator. I make videos on TikTok in Spanish for the Latino immigrant community here in the United States. I do my content in Spanish, but I talk about politics, social issues, and all that." Carlos Eduardo Espina has more than 10 million followers on TikTok. In another DNC first: he's taking center stage as a speaker. “I think nowadays left and right are getting their information on social media. So it's important to have people like us here so we can take that message directly to the audience who might not see the convention on television or on traditional news." Though the convention is its typical star-studded affair… ...the DNC this year is hoping to connect with voters beyond the reach of traditional media. TIKTOK VIDEO: "Look, I am someone who absolutely loves Joe Biden. But I'm also a woman who is completely psyched about the idea of a Kamala Harris presidency." This is influencer Leigh McGowan. "So I started this project as a way to reengage people with American politics, because I think American politics is so exciting and so wonderful, and I know that we can make such a big difference." Democrats are stepping up efforts to counter Donald Trump's social media machine and viral videos... in what polls show could be an extremely close race between the two candidates. “Breaking gay news. We are here at the Democratic National Convention…” Josh Helfgott, an LGBTQ+ advocate, says he’s grateful that Harris' team sees the value of creators. "It's about time. Creators are like a huge messenger in the news economy today. We share stories with the public, just like news anchors do. And in many ways, indisputably, we reach more people."18 minutes ago
