Myspace co-hosts event with MTV and Associated Press to orchestrate a presidential debate, but fails to address key concerns over technology.

· Myspace facilitates the transfer of dialogue between audiences on the web and audiences on television.· MTV, Myspace and Associated Press did not discuss the issues surrounding the continuous Net Neutrality debate; data mining, copyright law and privacy concerns.

· Democratic candidates Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and Republican runners Mike Huckabee and Ron Paul were present at the event.

· Myspace, the top social network, fails to address key concerns over technology.

· Although Myspace was made as a networking website is rising as a business, generating and focusing on making money.

· With Myspace’s increasing popularity the technology should have been used for more positive things.
