OK — I got this letter from Ancestry.com (see below). I believe them. A couple of other sites responded saying they only had marginal ads posted on CBS’s website (or something like that). I am beginning to wonder if this list is very accurate??
Dear xx: Thank you for bringing this important matter to our attention. I can confirm to you that Ancestry.com is not an advertiser or sponsor of the CBS Late Show with David Letterman. It is unclear how the company’s name ended up on this list, but it appears to be a mistake. We would appreciate your help in spreading the correct information. May I ask if there’s a website that you got our information from? I’m hoping to reach out to them directly to let them know.
Thanks,
Ancestry.com Public Relations
Just in case you think your voices are not heard.....
I put a comment on the Intel corporate blog yesterday...of course it never made it cause I am sure they are still “reviewing it”.
So today I tried calling the Intel corp for over half an hour...kept getting one voice mail after another...
Finally, I left a message for one of their Investor Relations Regional Managers.
Within an hour I got a sincere voice mail message from him, “I am sorry you could not get through on the phone to Intel.
The person to contact about this subject is Suzanne Fallender and can be reached at suzanne.p.fallender@intel.com
So , I think the advertisers are taking this Letterman fiasco very seriously!
Keep at them!
