Newseum Update












I love VIP treatment. When we arrived at Newseum, I didn't know what to expect. When I walked inside the building, I was simply blown away. First, it's huge. Second, it's my new favorite Newseum!!! After our discussion with Al Neuharth, the man who started it all we had a gourmet dinner, something I'm never used to at home. You can view photos above, maybe my family can learn from it! JK


Before I go to sleep, let me say this: I expected Al to be really obnoxious because his books, especially S.O.B. are written in that style. It turns out he is extremely friendly and simply an amazing person to talk to. I asked him a question which I thought would be comical. You see, when I try to ask questions during seminars like this, I like to wake up the audience and I did just that. I said, "Mr. Neuharth, we're all open here. Tell us how you really feel. What would you say to those critics today since they called your publication McPapers...what is your message to those critics?" The audience laughed; but it didn't get the answer I was expecting. I thought he was going to criticize them and say $%##%&*$#!!! Instead, he say "look at the results." Indeed.


I'll talk to you tomorrow.


Lata,


Kyle
