Like A Snake

Darren's hit a snag with his press pass in to TOS and asked for help.

[sfx]

If you cannot get something from Cameron or Bob, or one of the old/new media folks on OM, then perhaps AktoMan Press Baron could help out? Though I note the following from the MCC's regulations, which may be similar (or a tad more stringent) to that for the TOS:

For freelancers, MCC may request in support of your application a letter of assignment on official letterhead of the media organisation for which you will be working. In addition, you may be asked to submit two recently published articles (print media), recordings of two recent reports (radio and TV media), a letter from a broadcast organization which intends to air your work (independent TV production companies), original tear sheets and photos with credits of the issuing organisation (photographers), or three recently published articles with your byline (online media). Please be prepared to provide the required materials to MCC's Press & Public Affairs Officer in advance of your pass being issued.

Let me know if there's anything I can do to help, WD. Getting bloggers in is the quickest way to hear about the new shiny gear.

Press pass now sorted. Clearly Aktoman's influence knows on bounds.
