A couple weeks ago I got the opportunity to take a reporter for the Press Enterprise out to JV to show him what we're in the fight for.

I was surprised to see that on the front page this morning. Overall it was a pretty fair reporting on the issue even emphasizing the family aspect of off roading. Thanks to Press Enterprise reporter David Danelski for fair portrayal of off roaders and not painting us all as a bunch of Monster guzzling flatbillers.

Thanks MD. We've worked with David many times and he seems to get it. We just hope that his readers do.

Did anyone catch this article last sunday in the San Francisco Chronicle?

Keep an eye on Senator Feinstein's bill too. It sounds like her plan is to get it passed in the senate first.
Take a minute to send letters to the reporters & editors when they put out an article. Show that we CARE about Johnson Valley. We dont need more wilderness or national monuments in the desert either. They need to hear from more of us.
Email the reporter Carolyn Lochhead at clochhead@sfchronicle.com
Send a letter to the SF Chronicle editor on-line:
http://www.sfgate.com/chronicle/submissions/#1
Riverside Press-Enterprise editor can be reached at: letters@pe.com
Or direct to the P-Es news editors at:
Mike Mahi, mmahi@pe.com
Cathy Armstrong, carmstrong@pe.com
Reporter Daniel Danielski can be contacted at: ddanelski@pe.com
c.c. their News Desk at penews@pe.com
You might not hear back from them, but they like to know that people are reading and reacting to their stories.
