[nfb-talk] Media Influence

[Joe Orozco]

I guess I just don't understand why we can't counter these shows with some
publicity of our own.  If we feel so strongly about the negative perceptions
advanced by these type of broadcasts, why don't we try to get the Discovery
Channel or some such educational venue to portray blindness the way we would
want it portrayed?  Or, why don't we just do it ourselves?  We can't very
well complain about the influence of the media if we aren't willing to
invest in trying to influence it.

some turn up their noses, and some don't turn up at all."--Sam Ewing
