If not i'm about completly crushed I guess once vmk goes down so does my confidence and back to being bullied. Thanks Disney we can always count on you. Please tell me someone got some kind of response?
 

Besides being cut from CNN... nothing has really happened
 
Getting the media to cover an issue takes time, energy, and patience.

Think of it as a thunder storm:

You see the clouds.
You hear the rumblings in the distance.
You might see a flash of lightning.
You feel a raindrop or two.
Then the storm hits.

Keep the momentum going... we are trying our best to build a storm.

I haven't heard anything yet. But you can't give up just a couple days into the fight. There's still over a month to go before the gates are closed.

We have to remain persistant.
 
Thanks to Spacexalp from VMKMagic for these 2 quotes:

We made CNN

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Earlier, GreenKman had called CNN and many of us here had sent in newstips about it. Green just got the phone call back from CNN saying that they have looked into the story, and that the story will go live tomorrow (April 09, 2008) at 12PM PST.

This is what CNN has told us, so we can only hope that nothing goes otherwise and we actually made it.

We are getting somewhere guys!

UPDATE: Green had gotten the call back from the CNN National that was originally speaking to him telling him that they contacted WDIG and that they refuse to speak and that the story is OFF. I called the CNN Local that Green originally called about it and they basically got me off the phone asap.

I'm working on this guys..we won't be silenced!!

I called..

CNN -"Hello, what's your newstip??"
Spacexalp -"-tells them about the issue-"
CNN - "Yes sir, we have that info about it already"
Spacexalp -"Well is the story being published?"
CNN - "Sir, I have no comments upon the story at the current time"
Spacexalp - "Well is there anyone that does?"
CNN -"No sir, you will just need to keep tips on the website. Thank you for calling."
-Hangs up on me-

Something is going on guys...
-Space

Well we're getting somewhere! And it's only been a short amount of time! For those of you who ARE interested in getting some publicity, here are some suggestions on who to get in touch with:

Yahoo- they have smal little news stories on their homepage
AOL- "
Oprah
Ellen
Fox
CNN-try to convince them!
CBS
Maybe even the Late show? (David Letterman)
StudioB-I think it's FOX, but they have done other stories that VMK beats, so I think we have a chance with this one...

I know some of these might be way too far out there and we probably don't have a chance, but it is better thennot trying at all!
Just DON'T try ABC...they are WITH Disney LOL and probably won't accept the story...

Also, people were asking things like, "What would they say on the story? If there isn't anyone to interview, it would be a one sentence story!" etc. etc.
Well what if one of the hosts were interviewed? I think that could add to the story. And if they did some research they could have plenty of facts! they could include the boards, ours and others, and what we think. :thumbsup2
 
Hey Ill,

Our campaign has not yet been picked up by the major media, but others on-line are seeing our efforts. I don't know if you saw this, but a guy who runs his own on-line blog seems to have seen my letter somewhere and quotes it in his latest entry on his site.

Read the comments below as well. We are gaining support from people not connected to VMK. That's great!
