Viral Room Rater Twitter Account Creator: ‘Depth’ Is Key to Virtual Background Success

it's been a welcome distraction from the,onslaught of coronavirus headlines,the twitter account that's been rating,just about everyone who's anyone on tv,news,not for the content of their coverage,but for the room they deliver the,content from,the account is called room raider and,there have been some perfect scores,like senator elizabeth warren whose dog,bailey jumped her up to a 10 out of 10,and world central kitchens jose andres,quote,well lit feeds thousands there have been,some pretty low scores too,like congresswoman alexandria,ocasio-cortez who got a one out of ten,for what the room raider called a,hostage video or like lady gaga who got,two points for a lamp and quote,that's it but room raider is also open,to,improvements like from former,congressman beto o'rourke,who started with zero points for this,cave-like shot,in which room writer asked him to,organize rescue mission,blink twice if you can hear me but i,ended up with a 9 out of 10 when he,moved out of the basement,because who doesn't love a redemption,story the site is the brainchild of,claude taylor and jesse beret,and claude joined me yesterday to talk,about it claude it's great to meet you,thanks for being here thank you so how,many people have said to you what i've,been thinking,why didn't i think of this first about,4020.,give or take a few give or take we just,started tweeting what everybody else was,already doing,i was on the phone uh with my girlfriend,uh who's actually in vancouver and,we were making comments about people's,background and we just said let's make,an account let's call it room raider and,here we are okay so i did a little,checking out on you used to work for,bill clinton and sort of uh and days,gone by,and you're not a huge trump fan so,before i even delved into this i'm,saying,there's going to be a bias and the first,thing i came upon was ann coulter,for whom you gave a zero pretty much,what you'd expect,puke in a big tv she gets a zero but,then i saw,a local guy a democrat who didn't do too,well too seth moulton lose the flags,this is not the roosevelt room,keep the sailboat and let's see the,mantle at art maybe,paint are you conscious of being,scrupulously fair because you're getting,those kind of reviews well we,we rule with an iron whim,so we do you know the world,everyone has their bias there's no such,thing as subjectivity,everything is through the eye of the,beholder well,i think you're fair i have to say even,fairer sometimes than i'd like now,if you're giving advice and you sort of,do even if it's inadvertently,what are the critical elements of like,high scores there claude,well the best rooms tend to have,something which mine,mine doesn't this is like a six maybe a,seven okay,um good rooms the better rooms have,depth,you start it at the uh presenter,um and you move backwards so you can see,the uh the,art on the walls and maybe a bookcase at,the end or not a bookcase but you can,see an interesting lamp,art color plants but death,well you know it seems to me you're,giving short shrift to the bookcase,thing,here are a few of them from fareed,zakaria to british journalist john,sweeney to richard haas from the council,on foreign relations,almost everybody has a bookcase and you,know you often feel i don't know if you,do,like they bought the books so that they,could,impress you do you not get that feeling,from time to time,you know uh certainly it's frequently uh,an issue um one has to be very careful,to avoid staging,okay so in this category,if we see a bookcase with color-coded,books,like you've got the red blue the blues,the reds the greens,whatever that's an automatic three-point,deduction,and and maybe that person has read the,books,maybe but that is not a working person's,library,look at um if you don't mind my saying,a correspondent from another network,sure john dickerson,yeah you know impressive library that he,has categories by,categorized by subject matter you know,that is a,real library it's his library,there's no staging another issue besides,the color coding of books,is watch out for too many horizontal,books,oh yeah it's not how books are are used,well i can one-up you there i'm watching,cnn yesterday and this,guy abdul el-sayed who was involved in,health stuff but he also ran in the,democratic primary for governor of,michigan,not only were his books horizontal but,the horizontal pile,were his own books called i wrote it,down,healing politics that's like a big,deduction right,okay it is specifically you're allowed,to have,one copy of your promo book on display,it's expected,you're an author you published a book,you got it published,you get to show one book you show two,books it's an automatic three-point,deduction,does anybody plead for a higher score or,no daily really,we've gotten cash offers,from anybody in high places or no,yes okay you're not going to tell me who,obviously are you,i didn't think so so claude we got to,end with the obvious i thought you were,a little generous to yourself before,w
