Bump -- as reminder to continue notifying the sponsors...

[StrictConstructionist]

Some info is wrong in the sponsors list. The United Airlines link points to US Airways. United says they have bought no time on CBS in November. The text needs to be changed to US Airways.

I have emailed each of the links that had an email page.

Replies so far:
Gillette auto responder thinks my email is a resume; stupid responder. Generic replies from Chevy, Saturn, and Lean Cuisine

Monster.com says they have not bought any advertising time on CBS in November at all. Ericsson replied "Ericsson is not a sponsor or advertiser on 'The Reagans', nor are we sponsoring any television programming in the United States."

We need to revise the sponsors list. We need to be accurate since we are attacking on the grounds that CBS is inaccurate.

From US Airways.

Thank you for your e-mail.

The information you have received is incorrect. Please allow me to clarify that US Airways is not a sponsor of the movie referred to in your e-mail.

Thank you for giving us the chance to respond to your concerns, Mr. XXXXXXXXXXXXX.

Sincerely,
Scott E. Sebastian

Who came up with this advertisers list? I beginning to feel stupid for emailing these busnesses.

I got emails back today from Erriksen (sp?) and Lean Cuisine, thanking me for my concern but saying they do not have any ads scheduled to run during the Reagan movie. Are they just covering their @ssets?

We apparently got the advertiser list very wrong. Does not look good on us.

This is the response I just received from the General Manager of my local CBS affiliate:

Dear John: Let me tell you right off that I'm a Ronald Reagan fan and a proud conservative. I don't begin to condone what CBS is apparently planning to do. But as much as it may anger and frustrate me (and it does!), I can not refuse to air this mis-guided miniseries. It's not a matter of fortitude, it's about censorship. And, John, once that door opens, it never ever shuts.

What I'm encouraging folks to do is simply not watch it. Networks survive on ratings. Watch something else those two nights. Read a book. Talk (what a concept!). I can assure you that I won't be watching that telecast.

In the meantime, we at WTOC are beginning work right now on a news series dealing with President Reagan, to air that same week in November, which will provide a much fairer view of his stunning legacy.

Thanks for taking the time to share your frustration about this arrogant and insensitive "project" with me in writing. And thank you very much for your current service to our nation, which in itself is helping to sustain President Reagan's efforts to keep us (and much of the world) free.

Best wishes,
XXXXXX
VP & General Manager

I'm upset about Target, that's my shopping parlor of choice.

Outstanding thread bump!

A letter in the mail carries much more weight than an email message, btw.

The sponsors are not in the business of assaulting the sensitivities and sensibilities of their customers. Rest assured that each letter they receive hits them as if 10,000 viewers are responding, for only 1 in 10,000 bother to register their disgust with the sponsors' irresponsibility to the community in which they do business.

As someone in Hollywood said about this sort of left-wing hatchet-job: "If you want to send a message, use Western Union."
