Sweet!

Ask them why they won't cover Ron Paul but they will cover Guiliani, who hasn't even won a single delegate!

 

[Matt Collins]

Yeah - they made a big mistake putting their fax number up there heh heh heh

 

[JoshLowry]

Do not abuse these numbers.

 

[Matt Collins]

Do not abuse these numbers.

I agree. Letting them know your opinion is good but don't be obnoxious.

VP of ABC is mad at me!

As some of you may know I am a producer at a conservative talk radio station.

After posting the contact information for the top directors of ABC News along with their coverage plan of Super Tuesday (which excludes Ron Paul), they have apparently read these forums and sent my boss an e-mail about it. By the way, the information I posted is available to the public on the ABC News website:

http://abcnewsradio.com/08election/advisories/supertuesday.html

http://abcnewsradio.com/contact.html



VICE PRESIDENT / GENERAL MANAGER Steve Jones of ABC News authored the e-mail in which he mentioned his displeasure of the situation.


Apparently he thinks we are “protesting” and “intending to disrupt his news operation to achieve political gain”.


To be fair, he did however say “I respect the rights of these people to complain” and his e-mail was very cordial.

He also mentioned that Peter SalingerDirector of ABC News Special Events “had to turn his cell phone off at 3am because the deluge of calls was unending” He continues “In addition our newsroom today was distracted from its primary operations so staff could answer calls from Ron Paul supporters”

While I do find this humorous, calling members of the media at 3am on their personal cell phones is not appropriate and I do not encourage this activity. In fact it reflects poorly upon Ron and ourselves.


I don’t want to "disrupt" anything at ABC. I never encouraged anyone to disrupt anything. So if anyone here is going to call or e-mail ABC, be polite, and don’t call at all hours of the night. Also don’t be rude, obnoxious, disruptive, etc. All you should do is state your opinion in a courteous and mature manner- they’ll get the point.


The information is publicly available and has been prior to my post so I have not posted anything that was private, confidential, secret, proprietary, etc. Again, please do not behave poorly with this information because it makes Ron Paul look bad. Our actions reflect upon Ron. Please keep that in mind.

ABC is making their own organization look bad....They are attempting to censor and alter the election process...It is BLATANT censorship and it is inexcuseable.

I agree. And we should let them know we don't approve, but we should also not make ourselves of Ron look bad in the process.
