ummm… ABC's 20/20 'off-ed' us in favour of a segment on electric blankets. Head Producer Guy said specifically that a segment dealing with the internet, investing, and stock scams was too specialized—wouldn't appeal to a general audience. I don't know how many people are affected by the internet, investing, and stock scams —vs.— electric blankets…so I'll opt for a 'no comment' on the matter. The 'Electric Blankets' segment aired around April 5th. (yes, it's really true, I kid you not…) What's a poor Webnode Executive to do? (aside from battling an oppressive media Baron who stomps on Free Speech rights with totalitarian impunity, whilst gleefully distributing press releases for fraudulent companies, dictatorially crushing scambusters who seek truth for investors, and repressing justice, freedom, and the right to say 'Rhubarb' at the top of my lungs in the privacy of my own home.)
