The infamous CP article.

I know a few groups all across Canada were interviewd for this article that was put on the wire by the Canadian Press. We're slowly seeing which papers bought it, here is an, in my opinion quite fair, version that made the Hamilton Spectator.

If anyone out east spotted this article in your local papers, PLEASE let us know. We would REALLY appreciate knowing and maybe even a scan of the article if possible

[brag moment] I took the picture that was used [/brag]

ahem, Jester got all mad, cause it was in the Vancouver Province (we are VAncouver based) and quotes how I told her we take pics and put them on the internet so people don't have to endanger themselves to see these things, and then they link every other group except for us... just didn't make much sense... but i'm not the journalist...
sheesh

It was in TONNES of papers, not just yours

Did you mention the url to them?

If it makes you feel any better, I got cut too, they said I would get photo credit and I didn't.... the caption is less than pleasing.

Jester: I'm guessing the paper didn't link to your site because they didn't want Vancouver locals to read UE information they could actually use -- that is, they only wanted people to read about far-away places. (Obviously, they're thinking of the local audience and not the CP-wide/online audience.)

For the record, I never spoke to that reporter, even though she quotes the zine a fair bit.

Hey Ninj, I was wondering why she gave out infiltration.org, glad you didn't agree to the interview, I guess once bitten - twice shy!

You can't be lost if you don't care where you are!

Seems most papers provided the same set of links though...

True, though she did sound 20ish, even if she was old, i'd still take her over your preference *cough*old overweight men*cough*...

but seriously... who wants to infiltrate Canadian Press to find out for us ?
