some #techbro billionaire was invited to give a #TED talk, and said something like "I can buy 30,000 automobiles, but why would I do this, I don't need them. Being a billionaire doesn't automatically help the economy, you know"

He was never invited to give a TED talk again.

2) A good #civiceducation media campaign has to have a considerable amount of stealth to it. Try to avoid making people believe that you're on one side of that horrible and pointless #culturewar so there'll a be long enough period when #FoxNews pundits will ignore of even recommend you. The #PSA format surely helps, when you can use it.

1) Introducing a new #hashtag

If I were a billionaire I'd launch an ad campaign for #Wikipedia. Not only requests for funding. Also #PSA mini-documentaries about the verification process. And why not spoofs of animated #sixties TV commercials, Like the #TerryGilliam "Uncle Sam toothpaste kills communism", suitably adapted. But perhaps a sizeable part of the target audience has already been conditioned to think of Wikipedia as an emanation of the Devil.
