I am being interviewed by a local TV station

[SuperVaporBros]

Definately!!! This is fantastic news! A local contact will get attention drawn to us and our voices would and SHOULD be heard!

A spot of sunshine, I was interviewed this morning by Ann Varnum for WTVY television channel 4 here in Dothan, AL. It was funny she wanted me to puff on my epipe when she started the interview, stating that our guest are here and they are not smoking. This was not a witch hunt by any means, she even read a testimonial by a 52 year old man that had cancer of the tongue and lost part of it, and was replaced by a piece of his forearm. The man had tried everything to stop smoking and 2 weeks after his surgery started again figuring if it took 30 years to manifest he had time. After he tried an electronic cigarette he was hooked, and has been analog free for over a month. She was more interested in our (mine and Susan a fellow vaper) story on what it did for us. In closing she displayed the business owner’s telephone number selling ecigs in this area and to contact him if you were looking for an alternative to smoking.
Overall I think this will be a very positive review.
Thanks to everyone for the prep.
It airs Sep 13th.

Wow, that's awesome! I'm glad that everything went well and it wasn't one of those ninja ambush bad interviews! And I must say that you looked quit handsome in what you were wearing! Good job!

It makes me want to go to my local news stations and try to get us some exposure in a part of the country that doesn't have much of it! The news people seem nice here, so I don't think that they would try to ambush me in a bad way. I'm not sure if I am the right person for the job though since I am very skinny and have sorta bad skin from acne scars, so I'm not exactly the greatest picture of health as far as everything goes.

I went into a local bar in my town today, to see an old friend that I hadn't seen forever that now works there, and the bar was filled with a lot of guys in their 40's and 50's. They were all watching me vape and asking me questions about it, they hadn't ever heard of it. Although this state has a smoking ban now, there are still bars in my small local town that will still let people smoke, so all of those guys were. I guess that the police doesn't care and the owners figure that not many head honchos from the state are going to actually care about my tiny little town, so they let people do it. Although when someone said that there was a car across the road with state tags on it, that made the bar owner jump up and look outside!

[mtndude]

best thing I've seen in a lonnng time. Bravo, Dan!

 

[Fredrick]

I agree, great job Dan!

 

[olderthandirt]

Ok Dan! Now how do you go about getting a video to go viral!

 

[RenaissancePuffer]

Very well done Dan! It seemed like the interviewer was upbeat about it. This is the kind of press that we need as vapers. It is a better alternative, and it's nice to see it being reported in that light.

 

[dragonpuff]

That was great thank you dan!

It's so hard to find such positive information about ecigs on TV! If only interviews like that were everywhere

 

[Liscab]

This video is another water melon into the a** of the FDA, btw you look younger than your avatar passport photo

 

[AGNES PEACOCK]

Very nice Dan! Thank you.

XOXOXOX

 

[Kate51]

Skubabatdan, I never saw your flub up a post yet! Good luck!

 

[HaploVoss]

Fantastic! Great job Dan - it sure is a pleasure to watch something so calm and *positive* about this.

Oh any my wife says you look even better on TV! Wait... I'm not sure how I feel about that... lol

Take care man,
- Hap

 

[Misty]

Great interview,Dan!
Relaxing, honest - and you look great!

 

[Kate51]

I have never before seen a more professional interviewer. She was doing the Story of E-Cigarettes, not trying to debunk a theory. It was truly uplifting to see, you all did a terrific job!

It's fantastic! Any chance of posting a direct link to WTVY and the interview; I want to pass it around - digg it too if that is possible.
Thank you!
