Television is a medium because anything well done is rare.

Today's media pervades modern life in many ways. Who among us does not know the ad slogans of literally scores of companies? On an average trip to work, that worker is assaulted by mass media an average of 23 times.
What better tool for F.R.E.E.[tm] to use in the defense of fathers and fatherhood than the modern media? The myth can be shattered by the truth, but the truth must get out, and media is how that happens.
F.R.E.E.[tm] has been featured in the print and broadcast media, and continues to bend much of its efforts towards its campaign of education as to the truth about dads, and the plight of those discriminated against because of the myth.
F.R.E.E.[tm] New York City Area Coordinator Brian Tuitt appears on "The Rikki Lake Show" in November 1995, pleading to be considered more than just a cash cow to his child.
F.R.E.E.[tm] has also been on the radio. F.R.E.E.'s North Carolina area coordinator, the late Patrick Fitzpatrick, had an especially good appearance on station WBT.
In addition, F.R.E.E.[tm] produces its own television program, Fathers are Parents Too. It is being shown on a growing number of broadcast and cable systems across the country.
Truth is, fathers are worth more to this society than just as wallets for their children. Get that message to the public, forcefully, continually, and people will begin to act on it.
Not only does F.R.E.E.[tm] directly affect the media, but, through its Kudos program, it rewards companies who, through their advertising, send a positive message about fathers.
F.R.E.E.[tm] founder and executive director, Anne P. Mitchell, appeared on the Leeza Gibbons Show Tuesday, February 6th. The show concerned"deadbeat dads", yet the dads and Anne addressed the importance of keeping fathers involved in their children's lives!
