Deb,

All you can do is try and see what happens. That is all any of us can do.

Hi Matthew, (not Mr. Chan 🙂

After reading your feedback, I couldn’t help but think of who else I could email that might be interested in this fight. I don’t know if you are familar with Barbie Latza Nadeau. She is a writer for the Daily Beast and from reading her articles I thought this might be right up her alley. So I went ahead and sent her an email too.

Hopefully both Jim and Barbie will feel the way all of Steve’s fans do.

Thank you again

Deb

Hi Deb,

Please don’t call me Mr. Chan. It makes me a bit self-conscious although I appreciate the respect intended. 🙂 Call me Matthew.

You are one of the reasons why I took the time to advocate for Steve. People like you come up with great ideas that he or I could never have thought about. Until recently, I had no idea of Jim Rome was. He sounds like a big deal with sports broadcasting of which I have no knowledge or connection with.

Money certainly helps but I think people are beginning to see a lot can be done outside of contributing money to the cause.

You have read all 17 articles plus the 2 CNN iReport articles so far? Wow, I am impressed. I hope it has been educational for you. I am not the entertainer Steve is but I do have a lot to say. LOL!

Hi Jenny,

Thanks for taking the time to say that. It does encourage me to do more. Obviously, I am not getting paid for this and I take time when I can to do it. Admittedly, I am more inclined to do more writing if there are more readers than less.

So, I unabashedly say that I do appreciate the encouragement. It can get a bit lonely on this end of writing to to a bunch of people I don’t know and will probably never get to meet. But I am happy to say, I am starting to build the beginnings of friendships (or at least friendly acquaintances) along the way.

Hi JoAnn,

It’s funny you mention this. I actually think that Steve could write his version of a “tell all” book. Obviously, his lawsuit is complicating things and there are many issues involved. But for what it is worth, I think your idea is a great one. I might get into it within an upcoming video.

There are all kinds of “unofficial” books about shows being written and I think Steve is in a great position to do it. I don’t think he has the support system to pull this off right now. Personally, I know how I would do it because I have published well over 20 titles without any help from traditional publishers.

Maybe one day Steve and I will cross paths in a personal way to have such a discussion. Time will tell.

Matthew

I have read every article that you have written about this lawsuit. I have signed the petition but went another step further. As I was reading one of Steve’s email responses, he stated he used to work for Jim Rome. So I sent Jim an email regarding this matter. Maybe he will remember Steve working for him and be interested enough to look into the matter and get the word out on this injustice.

Thank you for everything you are doing

Deb

I wanted to say a quick hello and let you know that I have found your correspondence regarding the Reality Steve lawsuit very insightful. You continue to make excellent points in your analysis of the lawsuit and I enjoy reading your columns!

Best Regards,

Jenny
