ER is competition for CH.  ER has a pediatric resident who is the person
who checks the story lines for acuracy - I recall reading this in the
newspaper a few months ago.

I'm sure ER could do a better job with a realistic - pro breastfeeding
theme - after all the show prides itself on being realistic down to the
details.  Shall we approach them with a suggestion and an offer to help
with a realistic / exciting story line?  "ER's hospital goes baby friendly"
 - there is plenty of conflict to go around - could certainly "turn the
tables" don't you think?

ER could generate lots of positive publicity - and we could help them
generate a large market share of the audience if we were aware of a
positive breastfeeding theme in advance - and tied in news releases and
special public service anouncements just as we did for the negative CH.

I'm willing to be one of a group of interested people who approach them -
anyone care to join me?
Anyone have an address?
