Friends and compatriots,
Within an hour of our email action alert last Friday, the phones at the History Channel's main office were already beginning to ring off the hook. I spoke to one of the office personnel in Mr. Berning's office, and she was quite fatigued from the number of calls that had already been coming in about the History Channel's decision to pull the history segments paid for by the Georgia Division of the Sons of Confederate Veterans. She tried frantically to find the head of their PR department to speak to me personally, as the situation had been set at their highest priority due to the number of calls that they had received. Apparently the head of their PR department had already left for an extended weekend and is set to return to work tomorrow, Tuesday, December 7.
What do we need you to do?
1. Please resume calling on Tuesday morning to BOTH the New York headquarters and the Atlanta sales office listed below.
2. Continue to forward the email below to every email list that you have and encourage them to do the same.
In addition to the two upcoming radio interviews that are scheduled, we have already received a substantial amount of newspaper coverage and more online reports than we could count this morning. Here are a few of the newspapers who have carried the story so far:
Augusta Chronicle
Savannah Morning News
New York Post
Florida Times Union (Jacksonville)
USA Today
Making a couple of phone calls each day is the least that we can do. We must demonstrate that we have the capability of flooding their offices with hundreds or thousands of calls if we wish to have the impact that we are seeking.
Will you do your part?
Sincerely,
Ray McBerry | |
