MEDIA COVERAGE SOMEWHAT UNDERSTATED

By thewaroncrap

Print media, my favorite forum, has been consistent but somewhat light. I bought three newspapers on September 13th following the band’s announcement of the London gig, and was disappointed that in all three papers, the news was relegated to the entertainment section, and on page 2 at that. I bought The New York Times, USA Today, and The Dallas Morning News. The story recedived a small amount of space in each paper, with no photo in any of the stories.

To be fair, the band were not present at the announcement, and the statement was read by the promoter. Had one or more of The Lads Of Led been present, media coverage might have been more dominate. Will someone please start a proper rock publication or TV channel so my boys can make the front page like they oughtta?
