LOGO ON rage PROTEST!

So, who wants to arrange a protest outside the ABC for NO LOGO on rage?

I am all ready for it!

Re: LOGO ON rage PROTEST!

Pity we can't find out the name and email address of the person who made this decision and just flood their inbox with complaints.

Re: LOGO ON rage PROTEST!

JASE, I found this through googling:

ABC's rage ceases watermark-free transmission

Kath Earle (Producer of rage) to me
25 Jun (2 days ago)

"Further to this - a review of placing the ABC1 watermark on rage has now taken place. The Director of Television and Head of Marketing have decided to watermark rage to maintain consistency across the network (all other programs are watermarked).

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Regards,
Kath"

Lame.




So it's the Director of Television and Head of Marketing; whomever they are.

Re: LOGO ON rage PROTEST!

google reveals:

Director of Television, Kim Dalton



Tips and rumours: Tips and rumours: ABC advertise for marketer

Crikey / Wednesday, 3 March 2010

ABC TV is advertising for a new head of marketing. Has the overhaul of ABC TV senior management finally begun in earnest?




http://www.abc.net.au/corp/pubs/media/s2925507.htm

Diana takes over as Head of Marketing from Sue Lester, who is retiring after 20 years at ABC TV


So currently it's Sue Lester, but from July 19 it will be Diana Costantini.

Join my Facebook group No ABC Watermark On Rage

Re: LOGO ON rage PROTEST!

Hi Jase-I'm still having trouble getting access to your Facebook group.Can you help me out?

Re: LOGO ON rage PROTEST!

I can't find your group either.


Just found this which might be of interest, though it hasn't been updated since last August:

Apparently people who have written to the station complaining receive the same generic response.

Re: LOGO ON rage PROTEST!

Hmm. That's strange. Someone on the Rage website mentioned that they had formed their own Facebook group but i could not find it so i made my own.Now no one can find mine. My sister joined my group so it must be there somewhere. It comes up when i search for it. I'm puzzled. ?????

Re: LOGO ON rage PROTEST!

Here in the link to the one I got invited to!

Re: LOGO ON rage PROTEST!

Still no luck with the Facebook group.If its any consolation,I've signed the petition on the Rage message board.

Re: LOGO ON rage PROTEST!

John,

When I copy and paste the link I gave you in the Browser on the top and press Enter, it works for me?

Re: LOGO ON rage PROTEST!

Hi Jason!
Still no luck.Typical me not getting anywhere with technology.Thanks for your help all the same and fingers crossed we'll beat the ABC at their own game.

Re: LOGO ON rage PROTEST!

My sister and my wife have both joined my group. A search from my wifes facebook finds it however my sisters does not. Go figure?? There may be some setting i don't know about which prevents it from being found. I have also posted on the rage facebook page (the official one)so i guess you could look me up there, add me as a friend,i'll send you an invite and then you could delete me if you wish. Bloody technology.

Re: LOGO ON rage PROTEST!

Good news Jason-I'm in Jase's Facebook group.YAY!!!
