Samsung Swings for Another Selfie Home Run
Posted in: UncategorizedSamsung is hoping it hit a second selfie home run. And it picked the White House as its latest big stage.
On Tuesday, a Twitter photo of Boston Red Sox slugger David Ortiz and President Obama emerged. The shot was reminiscent of the “selfie heard around the world”: Ellen DeGeneres’ celebrity-packed shot from the Oscars snapped with a Samsung Galaxy Note 3. Samsung, an Oscar sponsor, claimed the shot was unplanned.
The latest shot came as the World Series champion Red Sox visited the White House. The tweet showed President Obama and Ortiz — affectionately known as ‘Big Papi’ — grinning beside a presidential jersey, with other team members in the background. It looked spontaneous, too.
