On July 22, 2009 Laura Flanders of GRITtv featured W”O”AO? on her Got Docs? segment. We’re pretty flattered about this since Shelley is such a fan of Flanders’ work at FAIR (Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting)!

We are also grateful and glad to announce we’ve recently received an outreach grant from the Lucius and Eva Eastman Fund. This means you’ll be hearing more about the film’s release and our outreach efforts soon!
Hope the summer warmth and showers are treating you and your gardens well!
