BronyCon in the news
 

Wow, the BronyCon made the homepage on Yahoo!'s website. Gotta say that's a bit of a shocker.

Here are the permalinks in the image:
Kids' TV show attracts a macho audience; Meet the Bronies
Convention scenes (includes interview with Lauren Faust)
Shop for 'Pony' items
'Pony' show speaker

(Now how long until someone rages that the My Little Pony toy is not from G4?)

I was the one who brought this up in the chat and I AM REGRETTING IT

Nah just kidding, I figured a thread would be made for discussion. Also this is my first and only post in this sub-forum so bye *leaves*

Someone should take a picture of that post, who knows- That is history right there.

Wow, the community's getting so much publicity now. I can really see it's more that a show. If this convention sticks around for another 6 years I might have to swing by and see how great it is in person.

I really want to go next year, if possible.

Hmm, Fubab has good senses...unless he already read about it.

The July 6th episode of Erin Burnett OutFront spotlighted BronyCon and bronies in general during the segment The Number.

Unusual for a widespread news outlet, CNN shone a relatively-positive light on the brony phenomenon. Also, Erin Burnett decided to cave into the pony craze with her OC pony "Erin Bro-Nett".

Ugh, a Rarity recolor? Really, Erin? Everyone knows Rarity is worst pony.

Pretty interesting to see the Con appear on CNN, especially when they're mostly known for having way too much political 'news' (rather, gossip).
