Hi everyone,
If you recall I posted a thread dealing with the upcoming Canadian Television show on the JW child abuse scandal at :
http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/forum/thread.aspx?id=44236&site=3
I just want to pass a message along that if anyone watches CBC's "The Fifth Estate" on Wednesday, January 22, 2003 (that's this Wednesday night), they should see a promotion for the upcoming Jehovah's Witness Child Abuse show at 9:00pm, next Wednesday, January 29, 2003.
The promotion should be aired at or near the end of the show - around 9:50 to 9:55 pm on January 22. 2003. It should be about 1 minute in length and should give the pubic an idea of what is to come on the 29th's show. About 1 million people should see the promotion in Canada.
Promotions will also air throughout the week on CBC at different times. The producers have informed Hawkaw that CBC has assigned a promoter to promote this show. The promoter has been assigned to help notify people in Canada about the show and may pass around copies of the show to different high profile reporters to get other media interested etc.
Hawkaw has suggested to CBC that they should run many advertisements as possible on Hockey Night in Canada, this Saturday, but we shall see what happens.
The producers have also told Hawkaw that we are NOT allowed to notify the press in Canada about the upcoming show as that is the promoter's job and other reasons. However, the producers are more than happy that we continue to notify the JW and exJW community and all of our friends to watch the show as per discussion boards like this, word of mouth etc.
