Hi. I just received another call from Ned Berkowitz with Inside Edition. I think that both of you have talked to him also. Isn't that correct? I know that he has been corresponding some with Tim Rogers also. Anyway, he wants to come next week and interview the boys and myself. I just want to be sure that you both are in with me on this. I know that WWASP is forming a "Special Parent Reference List" to try and discredit what we bring before the media. Have you seen the letter that Ken Kay sent out to the parents with regard to the list?
I think this interview/story needs to be about Dundee, as that is the only school that we/I have any experience with. We need all teens, parents and directors (who are willing) to be available for any questions and interviews. Ned may want to pay a visit to everyone who is willing to talk. I believe Cathy and Karen would be willing to tell about their experiences. I believe that you guys know of a few others.
If we decide to make it bigger then Dundee, then we would need other parental and teen involvment. However, I am not sure what angle Inside Edition wants to take with the story. I think if we start with our story, then the stories of the other schools will follow. What do you think?
I think we will have a strong case as we have been at Dundee at times when they were in true form. In other words, we were there when they were not prepared for parental visits.
Give me your feed back. I want us to be on the same page on this. I want to expose Dundee for what it really is, a controversial and abusive holding facility for at risk teens that exploits teens and their families in a time of need. "What they advertise is not what you get!"
