You can ask CBC TV to cover Peak Oil

Unread postby dwenergyman » Fri 16 Jul 2004, 03:30:04

I'm requesting you join my effort in suggesting that CBC's "The National" to do a 23 minute story on Peak Oil. They normally do a story like this 5 nights a week so maybe we can get peak oil in one of their slots some day. I far as I know no serious peak oil story has shown up in any North American TV broadcast and I don't trust any American station to do an honest job of it.

They have a link and a check box just for making this type of suggestion to them called "Your turn."

CBC's The National

Send us your thoughts: http://www.cbc.ca/national/yourturn/

We want to hear from you on the issues and events you see on The National. Let us know what you think. We use a selection of comments every night in our Your Turn segment. We also welcome your comments and questions about the program.

Use the e-mail form to the right or contact us by phone, fax or mail (see info below). Be sure to include your full name, phone number and the community you're writing from. (We won't publish your phone number, email address or street address).

Awesome, I'll do it tonight! I've tried writing the Toronto Star and the Globe, so far no luck. Lets try TV.

I forgot to ask you to copy and paste this CBC story request message or link http://peakoil.com/modules.php?name=For ... opic&t=884 to any other message boards that you feel it would be of interest and I thank you for taking the few minutes of time needed to make this very simple and IMPORTANT request to a great news outlet IMO, CBC News.

BTW if you don't have CBC television in your area you can watch it online and if we're lucky enough to make this happen with a lot more time of course I'll get Global Public Media to archive it on their website just as they recently did for the Coal Bed Methane Gas story.

Here's a link to CBC's 'The National' where you can check them out or watch them on streaming video and archived video. http://www.cbc.ca/national/

And of couse Global Public Media is the best at just getting the stories out no matter what. http://www.globalpublicmedia.com
