    We apologize for the delay. Due to volume it's taking longer for us to get back to you.

    Thank you for contacting us with your concern. This gives us the opportunity to provide you with some additional information.

    Hallmark was not involved in the production of "The Reagans" miniseries airing on CBS and is not a sponsor of the program. By virtue of its international distribution network, Hallmark Entertainment Inc. distributes many films produced by other companies to international audiences, and this movie will be one of those. We suggest you relate your concerns about the program's content to CBS.

    We respect your views and appreciate the time you took to share them.

    Thanks,

    Jan Scott
    Hallmark Consumer Care

    Original Message Follows:


    Message: I understand you are about to sponsor a TV movie/miniseries called 'The Reagans.' I further understand, based on partial transcripts of the dialogue and comments from the actors and screenwriters, that there are a number of depictions and quotes from the President and Nancy Reagan that are patently false and made up out of thin air. Clearly this is an attempt to besmirch the name and legacy of the Reagans for whatever political agenda that lies underneath, and is nothing short of
    despicable.

    If this program airs, I will personally boycott not only CBS, Hallmark, and any sponsor willing to have their names mentioned in concert with this slanderous program.

    I further intend to actively recruit anyone within the sound of my voice or the reach of my keyboard to do the same. How absolutely shameful!

    TRAITOR!
