OK so remember the story I posted last week
about the couple who just couldn't have babies on their own? I sent the woman an email, and actually got a reply from her:
Dear Liz,
Thank you for this lovely note.
I think you will enjoy the following update from an email the producer sent to me after the show.
*The response was OVERWHELMING and the story broke all kinds of unprecedented records!!! NBC Today show was concerned about losing viewership to the Mel Gibson interview with Diane Sawyer and the gap between the networks was narrowing but they won the Nielson rating by a whooping 1.5 million viewers (double their usual difference). They also had over 400,000 people view the piece online on CNBC and over 99,000 hits to the NBC website which usually averages about 17,000 hits. This was such an important story that has touched so many lives and Kathy personally received over 400 emails thanking her for starting the Jakob’s Room Project for family and friends to grieve their loss. *
PLEASE write or call NBC, saying "thank you," for airing such an important topic. Also, forward on to anyone who may wish to view it. Due to the response, they have reloaded the clip back up on the MSN site.
