GodTube: Looking For Porn With Jesus
GOD Tube features a flip-through Bible and prayer blogs. It has received a $30 million investment from GLG Partners, a London hedge fund.
The investment valued GodTube at nearly $150 million, according to PaidContent.org. GodTube is ownded by Big Jump Media.
“People thirst for more than just a once-a-week relationship with the Lord and Savior,” says Jason Illian, Big Jump Media’s chief strategy officer in the NY Times. “They desire something that they can live out 24/7.”
With funding comes a desire for growth and advertisers. But on GodTube content must gain approval from the site’s headquarters in Plano, Tex. Vulgar, overtly sexual material is banned as are videos promoting other religions — but you can search for them on JewTube.com and IslamicTube.net.
Perhaps the site will take donations?
