What media personalities have returned your emails? |
|
In the past, CNN's Aaron Brown and...gasp....Morton Kondracke have replied to my emails. Oh, forgot that Eric Alterman has too. Love that guy.
Tweety never has. Just sent one to Lawrence O'Donnell, so we'll see there. I don't think ANY hard line conservative has ever replied, but those have been pretty few. Who wants to waist time writing those jerks.
Newspaper reporters that have written stories I've liked and emailed to are pretty good about replying, too.
Anyone else?

2. I left a voice mail to a local DJ telling him he should not have dedicated |
|
the Pearl Jam song "Daughter" to his daughter because it was about incest.
He apologized on the air the next day.

5. I don't get emails. So I figure that either what I say is not heard. |
|
Or my emails do not reach my email account.
Also I post where all should be able to see it, so that there is an intent of transparency, and if it is censored the wrong falls on someone elses decisions.
Also why I do not need what I post to be heard to have an effect.

7. many more used to reply |
|
...before the punditry on cable news got so popular....
My favorite is one from Keith Olbermann, sincerely thanking me for begging MSNBC suits to give him his own show. I begged them to give him anything he wanted, including a penthouse. He wrote me that he didn't get the penthouse, but he did get the contract and editorial control.
Oh I have an old paper letter from Tom Brokaw many many years ago. That's pretty cool too.

I was surprised, because it was a pretty rude e-mail.

just talking about how the best way of being persuasive is by respecting your opponents and stuff. It was in regards to his playing the foil on Hannity and Colmes. It was a couple of years ago, so I don't remember exactly what he said.
