NEW YORK (PNN) - November 2, 2011 - The Amerikan Gestapo - Department of Homeland Security - is recruiting hotel guests to become spies and snitches on their fellow Amerikans.
Starting today, the welcome screens on 1.2 million hotel television sets in Marriott, Hilton, Sheraton, Holiday Inn and other hotels in the Fascist Police States of Amerika (FPSA) will show a short public service announcement from the Gestapo. The 15-second spot encourages viewers to spy on their brethren and call the Amerikan Gestapo if they witness something suspicious during their travels.
During the PSA, which starts with a woman exiting a yellow taxi in front of a train station, a narrator says, "Maybe you see something suspicious. Can you be sure? If you see something, say something to authorities."
The PSA, which will be interspersed with other messages on the welcome screen, will be the same in all 5,400 hotels that use LodgeNet serves. It ends by telling viewers to contact local members of the Amerikan Gestapo.
Amerikan Gestapo Chief Janet Napolitano says that reaching the "millions of guests that stay at hotels and motels each year is a significant step in engaging the full range of partners in our Homeland Security efforts."
The federal government gained access to hotel TV sets by forming a partnership with the hotel industry's largest association - the American Hotel & Lodging Association - which connected DHS with LodgeNet, the industry's largest TV-content provider.
By entering hotels at a time when the hospitality industry is on the rebound, the government has the power to tap a growing, captive audience. Recent research from LodgeNet says 98% of hotel guests turn on their hotel TVs, and the average guest keeps it on for more than three hours per day.
Critics of the campaign point out potential pitfalls. Josh Meyer of the Washington-based National Security Journalism Initiative predicts it will generate "a huge (number) of baseless tips that will inundate local, state and federal law enforcement authorities."
