My 3 cents again,

I finally saw the episode of Dateline, with a few friends who are not nor have ever been JW's.
I was pleased to see how Bill and Barbara and Erica handled themselves in thier interviews. I thought the show went over rather well. There was no exagerated retoric going on and they carried themselves well.These are the testimonies of victims that will carry the most weight and be recognized. The more time spent focusing on the problems within the WTS with attitudes like these the better the chances will be of having enough of an effect on the WTS to bring about change in the right direction.
As long as the real victims continue to be heard and not overshadowed and trumped by a flood of foolish retoric that does nothing but cause real victims to be discredited. That is also something that happens all the time and is very real.
The quickest way to discredit real person is to surround him/her with wacko's so they aren't even seen anylonger. That happens all the time and that is a reality in the real world.
If there was a way to keep that from happening I would do it. -

I must add my heartfelt congratulations to all involved. I felt that an exceptional job was done. The effect will be devastating. I too am hoping for follow-ups.
Kismet, I must admit that the thought of thanking the sponsors never crossed my mind, and it is an excellent, excellent thought. Unfortunately, I can't remember who they are. Could you post a list of them?
I watched the program with my family, ALL of whom are Witnesses in good standing. There were 8 of us watching at the same time. In fact, every Witness I know of in this area made it a point to tune in. It was very, very quiet afterwards, and they looked like they'd been kicked in the belly.
Folks, I'm an old, old hand at political warfare and infighting. NOW is the time to drive the spear home.
