Now that Operation Chokehold–the plan to stress AT&T’s 3G network today–has taken root in the media, Fake Steve Jobs is trying to redirect the enthusiasm into something that’s more television friendly.

CNN can’t cover something that’s happening on a bunch of fiber optic lines. They can’t take pictures of that. But they can take pictures of people standing outside a store. Doesn’t have to be a lot of people. Just a few is enough, and then the TV networks can attach a photo to the story, which is what they need. If you can get a few people together, do it, and tell your local media where you are going to gather. Also, tell me, and I’ll post it here.
