Hi again Jst2 and/or everybody: Here's a list of all actual TV-Coverage for Silentlambs that I am aware of, just for the record. I just posted this info at another thread about these programs:
http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/forum/thread.aspx?id=37044&site=3
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is there anyway you "knowledgeable" guys (Trauma_Hound, Simon, Bill, etc.) would be able to make a Central Docking Station/page in order to bring ALL of the video/TV media programs into ONE download site? Merely for the sake of "ORGanization"! If not, and just for everyone's FYI, here are the other TV spots SIlentlambs has received (which I am aware of, there could be others -- all input appreciated from "those who were there"!):
PS: Simon has Dateline and Panorama here: ftp://intesoft.homeip.net
Connie Chung Tonight, CNN TV segment on 8-14-02: http://www.seattle-chat.com/video/index.php and then hit download. It's also here: http://mmesa.net/cnn-interview_bill-bowen.wmv
And/or you can read the transcript here: http://www.silentlambs.org/
German TV magazine KONTRASTE ( http://www.kontraste.de) broadcasted a very well researched report on child abuse within the JW community. The report was only 10 min long, but it was German prime time - the very first topic after the most watched daily news magazine. KONTRASTE (Contrasts) is very reputable TV magazine. Two victims were interviewed and a JW spokesman. This was on or about 7-15-02.
Protecting the Perpetrator Comes First - Child Abuse Among Jehovah's Witnesses

DAVID LETTERMAN joked re: the JW sex abuse scandal in his monologues on Monday and Tuesday nights, July 15 and 16, 2002. Previously, you could see the monlogues yourself, at Letterman's website here: http://www.cbs.com/latenight/lateshow/ and click on "Dave's Monologue" in the DAVE-TV box. However, I do not know if this ability expired shortly after each monologue. Is there any way to get video-clips of BACK monologues? Are there copyright issues?
Panorama BBC also did a brief 7-minute news announcement the afternoon before that evening's programming on 7-14-02. I'm not sure if this is one of those listed at your download site, Simon. But here's the info just in case:
Jehovah's Witnesses and child abuse The Jehovahs witnesses are the latest in a succession of religious groups to come under attack for the way they have responded to allegations of child sex abuse within their ranks. A Panorama investigation to be shown on BBC1 tonight (Sunday) reveals that a number of legal actions against the organization are underway in America, but the problem is not confined to that country. Report by Panorama's Shabnam Grewal. Listen here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/religion/realmedia/sunday/s20020714g.ram (7m 21s)
Then, of course, Panorama/BBC had that "Question & Answer" show the next morning of 7-15-02: The Jehovah's Witnesses are accused of having a "child protection policy" that protects paedophiles. You can ask our panel about the organisation, its policies and how child abuse should be dealt with in a live forum on Monday 15 July at 14:00 BST, to be shown on this page and on Digital Satellite television.
