Ana Posted February 1, 2003 Report Share Posted February 1, 2003 it will help the media (or even your senator's office) get a feel for the personal side of your case if you can send them web links to your story and pictures of you with your loved one at the bottom of emails. dont send these as attachments, as these emails tend to be deleted without being opened. for example, i just sent an email to the nytimes, as others have done (national@nytimes.com; washington@nytimes.com) briefly explaining our situation. but i wanted the email to be at least somewhat brief, so i didnt go crazy outlining my entire case history. at the end of the email, i included the following links: Web Addresses Related to My Story: Photographs: http://www.visadelays.com/ViewAlbum.asp?album=41My Story: http://candleforlove.com/forums/index....6b6e8b95c35ced1 Websites Devoted to Visa Delay Issues: http://candleforlove.com/ http://www.visadelays.com/ Government Websites http://www.usembassy-china.org.cn/guangzhou/iv/ Good Luck!!!!

AZwolfman Posted February 2, 2003 Report Share Posted February 2, 2003 Yes Ana, I agree. This is very important if we want to treated like people instead of case numbers, we must MAKE IT PERSONAL. Link to comment

Myles Posted February 2, 2003 Report Share Posted February 2, 2003 Aloha from Hawaii,Does anybody know of Chinese language newspapers in the USA? Mainstream media may not be interested in our story but the Chinesenight be interested. They would be looking for items that are not inthe mass market media and have an effect on them. Little by littlewe can expand the number of people who are aware of our situation.Myles aka Annakuen'GG Link to comment
