Particularly, we would like to know:
The show is produced here in Mountain View, California, at KMVT. Nearly all cable companies have a "public access" channel, and they are very willing to broadcast shows produced by other cable access channels (such as KMVT).It's a pretty simple system, once the link is made between us and the cable company (i.e. WXYZ).Once another station (let's use, as an example, WXYZ) agrees to air our show, we (here at F.R.E.E. HQ) put them on a list, and send the shows to them as the new shows are wrapped and on tape (this is known as bicycling).
But here is where we need your help and action: we need you, each of you, to call your local cable company, and make the arrangement for us to start sending our show to them and to get it on the air.
It's easy, and won't take much of your time! Here's what to do:
Go to the phone book, and look up the number of your local cable company. Call them and ask who the local cable access provider is (i.e. WXYZ). Or you may already know who it is.If you have any questions, drop a note to by Sandra.Call that local cable access provider (i.e. WXYZ) and explain that you are a member of the Fathers' Rights & Equality Exchange, an organization which advocates greater involvement for single fathers in the lives of their children.
Tell them that F.R.E.E. is producing a cable access show with KMVT in Mountain View, California, that it is a weekly talk show, and that we would like to arrange to have them broadcast it on a regular basis.
Tell them that it is a 28.5 minute show, and we can provide it in either VHS, SVHS, or 3/4 inch format [we greatly prefer VHS as the duplicating cost is much lower]. Tell them that we can provide them with the first twelve shows immediately, and two shows per month after that.
Ask them what we have to do to get started. Ask them about selecting a broadcast time (our preference is an early evening "primetime" slot; the show airs here on Tuesday evenings at 7:00 p.m.). Be sure to get the name of the person you talked to. Make as many of the arrangements as you can then and there. Our fantasy is that you get back to us and say "all the arrangements are made; send the tapes to this address, care of this person, the show will start airing on this date and time"!
This is directed to all you coffee drinkers out there; if you can't get started on your way without your daily "rocket fuel," then listen up.
A few months ago, Celebrity's Choice Coffee agreed with the FREE Foundation to contribute 20% of their designated sales to the Foundation, to continue supporting its work for fathers' rights.
