my name is Chris Herring, and I’m really hoping I can get through to you. I’m actually a reporter with The Wall Street Journal newspaper. I was hoping to do a story on people who are incredibly disappointed — or maybe even angry — that the GI Joe from the upcoming movie looks nothing like the original from the comics or the TV show. I’m especially interested in anecdotes involving people who have taken some sort of action (writing letters to the makers of the movie or who has plans of staging protests, etc.)

I know you don’t publish on this blog anymore, but I’m REALLY hoping you still have a way to see and respond to comments that are posted on the site.

I’m a real reporter, you can even look up my name. If you feel can help, my e-mail is chris.herring@wsj.com

Hope to hear back from you.
