Virgin Goes Viral Video to Make Its Case

If politicians can use YouTube to announce their presidential plans, then why can’t an airline make its case using video? Virgin America, the company started by billionaire Richard Branson, has been denied permission to operate in the U.S. on local routes because of too much foreign ownership. CEO Fred Reid is making his case in the video [ after the jump ], and believes that if enough people get behind the company it could actually fly in the U.S. skies. Whether or not you agree with Virgin’s agenda, there is no doubt they have one pimpin’ plane! Video after the jump.
