[Notwithstanding]

No kidding:

I just called 212-456-7777 and got through to GMA!!!!
I first asked to speak to "Kate, Kate Snow".
I got put through and they answered "GMA".
I asked for comment from John Green about the Drudge flash.
THey asked me to hold.
Then they asked who I was.
I gave them my real name and spelled it, and said I was a news consumer who was disappointed by the report and concenred as to whether John Green was an unbiased journalist or a biased progandist.

They hung up.

For media professionals, they are not very articulate.
