    Have you sent a copy of the press release to Stephen Bates

    Yes, I have. Also to 20/20, 48 Hours, PrimeTime Live, and a couple others too. It usually takes a few days for something that isn't BREAKING NEWS to generate a response, so it may be a few days before this story gets picked up.

    Here's hoping!

    I thought the part about them denouncing the UN as a tool of the devil was especially good.

    In case anyone would like to send a short message to the news desks of their regional news outlets but don't know what to say, here's what I sent, which you may find helpful:

    Dear Editor,

    I would like to make you aware of a press release concerning the recent efforts and temporary success of the Watchtower Bible & Tract Society to shut down a web site via legal intimidation. The web site is a scholarly site that contains quotations from the WTBTS's historical publications to document their changing and often contradictory stands on a variety of issues. The story is especially interesting in light of the fact that the WTBTS has fought so hard historically to establish their own rights to freedom of expression, taking tens of cases all the way to the Supreme Court.

    The site in question is:
    http://quotes.watchtower.ca.

    There is a press release with more details and contact information at the following URL:

    Thank you for your kind consideration.

    Regards,
