Further Proof That Old People Don't Get It

From a Times article about the new Rocky movie, "Rocky Balboa":

“It’s a high-technology, Google-blogging, iMac-type of premise going on there mixed with the classic underdog versus the establishment,” offered Mr. Sealey ["a former film executive who is now a professor of marketing at University of California, Berkeley"].

Does this guy have any idea what he is talking about? Couldn't he have at least thrown in a reference to My Space or Facebook, so that this cliche would be fully prepped for bed. Maybe it's his film background, where if you throw enough buzz words into a sentence that somehow makes it a valid, cogent thought. Or maybe he is just a clueless idiot, and UC Berekely really needs to reconsider their hiring policies.
