Campaign 21st Century: Mark Wahlberg
Valerie Carter, fellow board member on MW.com, wrote to me recently
on starting a fan campaign to encourage more media coverage about our favorite
actor. We've had several abortive attempts over the years, but they were
never really organized. With the real Millenium passing, consider this
the first step for the new century.
I have compiled a list of email and regular mail addresses. Write
to them when they do cover Mark to show your appreciation and encourage
continuation with future stories. Write to them when they forget to mention
Mark in their various lists or articles. Only with a large bombarment of
letters will this be successful. Make sure you include your full name,
phone number, hometown & email address (if any) to increase your chance
of being read/published!
[Yeah I changed the name. It's easier than
changing it every year. This site is already over 60 pages!]
