LisaAKAmom's Bio
 


Hello, My name is Lisa. I'm a part time Substitute Teacher Grades K - 12, special Ed, as well as a Full time mom, to three wonderful kids. Christian, Carolyn - both in 7th grade and going through the  middle school Drama, and my youngest who is now 11 years old and has severe autism. Richie was diagnosed when he was 2 years old...and has been my inspiration. Just when I think I got it all figured out...my kids are there to let me know, I have been driving in the wrong lane, going the wrong direction.


We have been through some really good times and some really bad times. We have survived, moving to Japan, moving to Utah, Iraq...and Now we are Surviving Autism and Puberty..... I ran accross a quote this year...that pretty much sums up my whole attitude about everything these days. Any Day Above Ground is a Good Day....Explore All the possibilities, and Dont Sweat the Small Stuff. I'm too blessed to be stressed and way to annointed to be disappointed. And When life is really Hard....HANDLE WITH PRAYER.

FYI - RESPONSE FROM RADIO SHACK...NOT A MIKE SAVAGE SPONSOR!
by LisaAKAmom on 07.22.08 - public - 123 visits

Here is the response from Radio Shack...regarding the broadcast with Mike Savage...Apparrently stations ran the ads without their permission.
Here is the letter I recieved from them today!
Thank you for your email to RadioShack's Media Relations Department. We appreciate and share your concerns.

We would like to emphatically state RadioShack was not and is not a sponsor of the Michael Savage radio show. In fact, our agreement with the radio stations airing his show specifically excludes his program (along with several others) as one on which our commercials may appear. Any ads that may have run on the July 16 broadcast of this show were in direct violation of our advertising contract with these radio stations. The stations have admitted their mistake to us and apologized for the confusion they have created. We will continue to investigate all local stations that air Michael Savage to ensure any unauthorized ads airing on Michael Savage are accounted for and that this does not happen again in the future

Unfortunately, the stations’ mistake was heard by many individuals such as you who have since spread the inaccurate message that RadioShack sponsors this program. Likewise, Web sites that were quick to post our name as a sponsor without investigating the actual facts have been very slow to correct the record online. Until that happens, we would greatly appreciate your help in spreading the correct facts through your own personal network.

Once again, thank you for writing and allowing us the opportunity to set the record straight.

Sincerely,

Charles Hodges
Director Media Relations
