Media Coverage at Cleveland 2000 Show

[Mike Substelny <msubstel@xxxx>]

JZD was interviewed twice for Cleveland radio. The first was a live
telephone interview by talk show host Paul Schiffer last Thursday. Mr.
Schiffer repeatedly mentioned Ken Koncelik's DeLorean Car Show. Before
the interview was over, JZD himself personally mentioned the upcoming
DOA Expo in Las Vegas.

The second was a recorded interview with local celebrity Carey Coleman
which will debut this afternoon at 2:00 Cleveland time. Both radio
personalities came to the three dinners. They assured me that both
interviews will be archived to the web by the end of the week, and as
soon as they are I will post the addresses to the DML.

A reporter from WTAM 1100 also came to the Show and covered it as a news
story. WTAM is a clear channel, 50,000 Watt AM station heard in many
states and Canadian Provinces. However, I do not believe the news
story will be archived to the web.

I was told that at least five television stations sent camera crews
(local NBC, ABC, CBS, FOX, and UPN stations). I know for a fact that at
least two featured the Cleveland 2000 show on the evening news.

Patti and I recorded the full 30 second story from Channel 43 (UPN) and
distributed copies to DMLers from various cities in the hope that
someone would stream it onto the web. It shows JZD with a huge smile on
his face, the Brandys Time Machine (in action!), Dave Colley's red car,
and the endless lineup of DeLoreans on the Pier. The news narration was
favorable to the DeLorean automobile.

Members of my family saw a similar story on Channel 5 (ABC) but only
recorded the last five seconds of it. It featured Curtis Bryant's red
car.

I am told that a number of magazine reporters were there, too, although
I personally only spoke to one of them. She mentioned that she had come
from New York, but I was so rushed that I forgot to ask the name of her
magazine. She may have been freelance.

Between running the Tour and judging the Concours, I was pretty busy
over the weekend. I may have missed some media presence. Does anyone
else know of more media coverage at the Cleveland 2000 Show?
