We don’t want money right now. We are looking for people to pledge their support either on a one time basis, or monthly. The cost of an eight page black and white tabloid is approximately $5,000.00 including printing and 30,000 distribution. \r\nSome of the proposed features: \r\n1. The letters they wouldn’t print \r\n2. What the media left out \r\n3. Actual Councillor profiles and accomplishments \r\n4. comparisons of this Council to previous Councils \r\nIn essence, it’s a chance to get out a new message, the other side. \r\nIf you are interested in this project, please email santacom@ tbaytel.net indicating your support (dollar amount). All transactions are confidential. \r\nI truly believe there are enough people out there to drive this newspaper. With the election coming on, I know the media is busy setting every reform Councillor up. \r\nI await your response. Please email this letter to other concerned citizens who may want to jump on the band wagon. \r\nOrville Santa" \r\n","author":"Calvin Cumberland","parent_id":23713,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2002-12-15 13:47:12","modified":"2002-12-15 13:47:12","fileurl":""}]}
