I called Reader's Digest Editorial Board at about 2:30 pm and talked with
a Ms. Jackie Mayerhofer for about 20-30 minutes about the issue. Yes,
according to her RD is going to release an article on Chinese military
spies, based on, according to her, purely research and facts. I then
briefed her on the whole senario of the CBS incident. I told her that
our community like RD and don't want to see a RD incident. I reiterated
that we are gravely concerned with the possible impact of any irresponsible
spy myth because its our lives which are at stake. She asked me about
what organizations reponded to our concerns, I cited CCR and DIA. She then
promised to get back with the responsible editor and they will get back
to me. They asked for my addresses, both home and work, and phone numbers.
My sense is that they'll go ahead and print it (may be it's already cut
and dry). She said that she perfectly understood our concern and would
definitely sensetize the relavant editor. Get ready, folks, and I think
we might have to deal with it again. Let's see.
I think we should publicize this fact that RD is going to carry another
spy myth so that our community is vigilant about it.
