HEADS UP: D.C. Chapter Will Be Featured on WUSA TV-9 (local CBS) News at 11 p.m., 1/19/2003

WUSA TV-9 did a follow-up interview with the DC Chapter of Free Republic with regard to our plans for further actions after countering the anti-war demonstrations in Washington, D.C. this weekend.

Kristinn, tgslTakoma, Mark Phelps, Angelwood, Jimmy Valentine's brother; Doctor Raoul; Buford P, Taxman and "JW" marched to the Navy Memorial with flags flying to meet with reporter, Dave Statter, and his cameraman for the interview.

After handshakes and introductions, Kristinn spoke with Dave Statter and showed him a copy of Peter Jennings' book, "In Search of America," which featured a two-page photograph of the D.C. Chapter countering some of these same IAC/ANSWER protesters during a demonstration at the Navy Memorial on September 29, 2001.

After a brief history of the Chapter, Kristinn stated our intentions to keep staging pro-America counterdemonstrations whenever the anti-war crowd comes to D.C. Then Mr. Statter told us that some of these groups are planning to come out every weekend. We told him about our 28 months of consecutive Saturday protests at the Clinton White House -- been there, done that.

This feature will probably be shown on the 11:00 p.m. News (that's what Dave told us); but it could be delayed because of the football playoff game on CBS, it could be shown tomorrow, or it could end up on the cutting room floor. Here's hoping.
