Not sure if anyone here has seen the news about a candidate for Miami Beach
city council receiving ugly emails for breastfeeding her 1 year old daughter
at city meetings. Well we staged a peaceful nurse in on Wednesday at the
city council meeting and a few local media were there. Apparently the story
was picked up by the AP and it's been played on stations all over the
country now. Today we were invited to be interviewed by the show A Current
Affair. It was definately an unusual experience! We told our stories and
answered questions from the shows host. It went well and he was very
respectful. He told us to keep up the good work doing what was right and
natural. I worry a little since it is a tabloid show, but hopefully he will
handle it tastefully. I'm not sure when we will be on, since the show does
not air in Miami. But if you'd like to see us, the show is here,
http://www.acurrentaffair.com/  and a link to the Miami Herald story is here

Who knew this story would end up being so big!
