Here’s a candidate for the day’s weirdest programming announcement: Content company Ignition Creative says it’s producing a reality docuseries about bitcoin regulation, of all subjects.
And it will feature Jack Abramoff — the once-powerful lobbyist who was imprisoned for four years after pleading guilty to fraud, tax evasion and conspiracy to bribe public officials.
The series, to be called
Capitol Makeover: Bitcoin Brigade, will show Abramoff giving lobbying lessons to
AML Bitcoin creator Marcus Andrade and his colleagues who want to
“prevent Congress from unintentionally destroying the digital currency industry,” the release says.
