ABC 7 news got it wrong

My boss came into work today and was very excited to tell me that my Red Sweaters project was mentioned over the weekend on the ABC 7 news. I am really upset about it for the following reasons:

1) ABC 7 did not contact me about it. I never would have known if my boss hadn't turned on the tv at that moment. And I was given no opportunity to clean up the front of the house before they taped it! (I didn't even know they were out there)

2) ABC 7 gave the impression that the project is a "memorial" - This project is NOT a memorial. I really wish they would have called and talked to me to explain the project before airing a story about it.

3) ABC 7 news gave the impression that I knit all of those sweaters on my own. I only knit about 9 or 10 of them. The rest were knit/crocheted and donated by hundreds of people nationwide (and a few world wide)

I did not even see the clip on the news. If anyone has a copy, please send me one!

I couldn't find a phone number for ABC 7 news on their website, if anyone knows how to contact them, please email me their number.

Now it's personal

It is official. I now know someone who is in the army and in Iraq. A friend from high school with whom I randomly exchange emails.

I haven't figured out yet how this changes my perspective on things, but I am sure that it does, somehow.
