Just out of curiousity, wouldn't it be easier to contact smaller organizations like Ladies Home Journal?

Yes, it would, Lise. They have done a story on a cherub, several years ago though. Redbook has done a story (even asked CHERUBS for information, quoted me directly without acknowledging CHERUBS. Ugh). I have some large newspapers editors' contact info too.
Any of you have some spare time to do a little bit of research and round up links to post to all the major magazines and newspapers? Then we can all go down the list and copy and paste our stories to each one.

Ok I get a few magazines. I tried to get them to do a story on Embryo adoption( like what we did w/ Reese) but noone writes back. I guess persistence is key. I'll gather them as I get the magazine in and post them here??? Or do you want them to you so you can put them somewhere???
Here would be great, Lise! Thank you!
The boys were selling magazines for their school PTA so I got suckered into getting a bunch of subscriptions (actually really cheap so it was a good deal). I'll post those addresses here too. And someone on my desktop pc I have a list of contact info as well, just have to go find it.

I get the old lady one...
LHJ, GoodHousekeeping,......now that I think of it one magazine that I haven't rec'd in ages is Woman's world. Their back page always has a human interest story.
The front page os magazines has a letter to the editor w/ her persoanl email listed. That's what I use.
Parents and Parenting magazine always seem to run stories. . . . . you know . . . . they were told their child wouldn't survive, but they overcame and beat the odds.
Oooo, what about Reader's Digest! Good one!

Don't you think going the magazine route is better then hitting the TV. We have been trying Oprah for years and nothing pans out.
I say we try both. It can't hurt to keep trying Oprah - you never know what may happen.
