In addition to Oprah...

we should also try other talk shows.

I'm not a talk show expert, so I only really know of Ellen Degeneres and Montel (would he support us?)...

Maybe we should also try for 60 minutes? Some people from DAP could be the DREAMers who give interviews to one of their correspondents.

Maybe progressive radio stations? (like Air America)

I know I'm thinking big here, but I think we can do something.

Of course... come on guys we NEED to do something

Ellen would never since her show is more on entertainment. She never does serious topics.

Lets go on Tyra

^ yes I agree I think Tyra is easier to reach than Oprah

so whos up for it???
is anyone organizing?
pm me if you want to do it. i didnt start the thread but i think this is really important and we should organize now.

Honestly I don't think Oprah cares. She's never done a show on immigration even when the topic was hot, and she doesn't strike me as a liberal. She said that she often votes Republican and Democrat so she's more of a moderate.

I think that a more viable, and shrewd move would be to target MSNBC. The network is growing rapidly and their nightly hosts are definitely on our side (immigration wise), but they probably don't know much about the Dream Act. Having Keith and Rachel advocate for us would be a huge boon given their prominance in the liberal blogosphere (Think Huffington Post, DailyKos, TPM, etc).

Tyra has amazing lighting. I would go and tell my story on her show
