WT? Corresponents

How to get featured in a Why Tuesday? episode:

1) Get an elected official on camera!

2) Ask if he or she believes America’s voting system is broken, and if so, we want to hear his or her plan to fix it. Be sure to ask the question “do you know why we vote on Tuesday?” to see if your elected official can explain the antiquated reason.

3) Upload your video to our YouTube group.

4) Send us your info.

Your video will be posted to our site for everyone to view and comment on. That’s about it. We like simple.

Why Tuesday? does not condone or encourage any illegal or inappropriate behavior. We reserve the absolute right not to post or consider for a prize any video that we deem to have been inappropriately obtained, of insufficient quality. Please, no duplicates.
