AGA goes MTV

Further distinguishing his presidency as a 21st century one, American Gaming Association President Geoff Freeman is taking his case to social media. “There’s no way to sugarcoat it,” he writes. “Some people view our industry as a necessary evil rather than a mainstream entertainment business … local leaders often view us merely as a source of revenue instead of a partner and catalyst for growth.” The filmlet above is described by Freeman as the “opening salvo” in the reinvention of the AGA as “an aggressive and unabashed champion of our industry.” In other words, it’s Freeman’s AGA now and he’ll be doing things differently.
