As with most things, since taking responisiblity to get the Rose Campaign out there I feel I have to finish the job and get the media coverage out there too.
As many of you skeptics pointed out might happen, the media didn't blink. You were right. My skeptical friends also told me Kerry wouldn't win and they were right, but I still don't beleive it's not coz he didn't get the Ohio votes (but I won't go there)...
My point in the comparisons is that you all went out and contributed your roses (votes) to Boxer and she got them, but few saw it and fewer still heard the actual numbers (4500 instead of 2400).
So. Stacy and I have been emailing - she was thrilled at the response so she is happy as heck - but she gets my point about staying on the framing issue too. She and I are trying to dig up all the media links and info that we can, correct the numbers where they were wrong and if possible create a collection of the best coverage.
That's where you come in - would you please post links to any coverage you come across to this diary or my blog or my email. I would suggest we keep it here (and I could create a diary just for that if that kind of thing is done on Kos) but for now keeping it in my space leaves more room on this blog for reporting, etc. If anyone caught video coverage in digital format, would you consider creating a file?
One outstanding piece Stacy found is a video clip from KCAL 9 in California, but it is video and they want $100 for it (or $195 in digital). We are figuring out how to do that (just bite the bullet and buy it for conversion or keep trying to find it).
Okay, that's it (and thanks for playing)...
