So I remember reading a live blog and hearing that everyone stood up and applauded when the Apple Watch was announced/shown off.
For some reason this REALLY bothered me (I'm beginning to realize the smallest things piss me off the most). I don't see what's so special about it, and if anyone would care to enlighten me, I'm all ears.
If you watched towards the end, it became clear a huge part of the audience was actually Apple employees. (They had all the Apple employees stand up.) This is how most press conferences work these days. You stack the audience with PR-friendly folks, who make it seem like everyone's really excited to be there. It sometimes gets confused with press--and I'm not saying there aren't press who cheer--but it's mostly people who work at Apple or whatever company is presenting.
Ahhhh okay. That's...an interesting tactic, to say the least. Appreciate the clarification!
Except that's not true at all
