Dear Farents and Attorneys and All Ferscns Involved in Sheff vs C'Naill:
Eello. I am pleased to keep you posted on the public relations campaign
regarding the Sheff vs C'Neill case. It 1s going well, but I need your
continued support and cooperation!
Bugene and Elizabeth appeared for one-hour on the Brad Davis Show on
WDRC, John Britain and Kathy appeared on YDRC's (WHot Seat,” one hall
hour WDRC AM and FM talk show. They were interviewed by Kim Zachery,
wDRC news director. Yedro and Carol were guests on WESB TV/3's "VISTA"
which will air this Sunday at 7 a.m. Fedro and possible another rep-
resentative of Sheff Vs G'Neill will be taping a special program in
Spanish on Channel 13 next week and we are awaiting dates to appear
on W¥FSB Tv/3's "Kew England Sunday" and Chennel 24's "Connecticut News
makers with Bob Douglas." I have also talked with Bob Ffan from the
Hartford Courant and other news people.
I do have a huge favor to ask each one of you. Should you privately
be contacted by any media person, please let me know immediately.
If you are scheduled to be on a show and cammot honor the commitment,
please call me as soon as possible. It is vital to our public relations
efforts that I keep abreast of what is happening and who is appearing
on various shows or speaking to the media.
It is important that we earry our message as a unified group. The
media representatives get annoyed if they get mixed messages or
mixed information from more than one source frcm a group. I will be
happy to work with you each individually as well as a group in helping
with media planning and outreach.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation. If you need to reach me,
please call me. at 241-8127. If I am not in, please leave a message
and I will return the call as scon as possitle.
Sincerely,
Sharon Seapuduing
