Social Media Snake Oil: Watch The Onion Take Down the Social Media Guru

It's amazing it's taken The Onion this long to create a video spoof of social marketing, with a mock social media TED Talk, above, featuring a social media charlatan talking about how he scammed Cheetos, Shell and Speed Stick. Below, watch some other classics of the social/digital guru takedown genre, including Adobe (which has a couple of horses — Adobe Analytics and Omniture — in the social ROI race), whose "BS Detector" video is featured on the Onion's homepage today; the BBC's London 2012 "Perfect Curve" mock digital agency; and the 2009 (NSFW) classic, "The Social Media Guru."
