How bizarre, here we sit offended, and abused and then the words "Class Action Suit" spring from the lips of some of us, when a far more potent weapon exists! I was "exposed" briefly to "Desperate Housewives" for the first time this weekend since it is one of my eldest daughter's favorites. Had I watched it long enough to be offended, I might have taken the time to note who was providing this "entertainment", done a little bit of on line research to get the E-Mail addresses of the sponsors and written them of my displeasure with their sponsorship of their portrayal of me and my fellow hobbyists. Those who pay for this "entertainment" might well have some impact on the story lines that are acceptable to their target audiences. Television like this is after all "commercial" and if the commercials are not forth coming, the cutesy portrayals of customers might change.I believe that the Disney organization implimented training to identify their "customers" as "Guests" in order for their people to understand how to treat customers. I am sure that if "scrapbookers" were portrayed as serial killers or pedophiles that the advertisers would be a little more careful of their support of some of these story lines. Perhaps we could do a little more active promotion of our hobby that posting videos on "U-Tube" as another tread has promoted recently.Perhaps it is time to let commercial television that "we are mad as hell" and we aren't going to take it any more! I, for one, am outraged that there has not been a criminal investigation into the pet food poisoning beyond the identification of the "rat poison" identification by the State of New York, but taht is just me! Will   ....    off my soap box for now!
