"Hey guys. The lady who wrote that cougar article for king5 is also working on an article about bear hunting and the use of dogs. She is offering any of us the ability to do an on air interview with privacy, our names won't be released so we don't get death threats from antis. If anyone on here has good solid evidence for our side let me know. I'm pushing for the comparison between Washington and Idaho and how they can use dogs and bait for bear and cougar hunting and we can't, now we are having all sorts of issues that other states don't. Please hit me with info guys! This is MAINSTREAM! Our voice can be heard!""If anyone want to reach out, her email is amorrow@king5.com and she said anyone willing to interview is welcome. It doesn't have to be me"
Bearpaw would be a good interview. Doublelung, also. Isn't Wacoyotehunter a biologist?
I know it kind of sounds like a derail, but I've kind of thought that winning over the general Seattle crowd might be easier if you could show the end result. I hear so often "what do you do with bear?", "isn't it real greasy?", "they just take the skins, right?" or "hunters don't eat bear or cougar".Need to find one of those popular foodie personalities (Bourdain, Zimmer, etc.) that urbanites seem to really follow. Have one of them do some really good and exotic bear and/or cougar dishes.
Would have to have a stipulation that nothing goes to press with out approval of the interviewed person first, make sure she doesn't mis quote them.

Highly doubtful you'll ever get that from them. The only way you can prevent that from happening is only do a live broadcast. Another option would be to have someone on our side filming the entire interview so that if they do a hatchet job you can post the full video to refute them. But live interviews are by far your best way to avoid problems.

I would mention that the state still indeed uses dogs to control the population in the tree farms, at the expense of the taxpayers. Instead of making money they are paying.
Lets stop talking about the depredation hunts and maybe remove the ones mentioned. a person reasearching for the article could catch wind and if brought to the attention of antis this tool could be challenged
I would be VERY careful. Editing could turn it against us.
