Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Cohousing Story from CNN Website

[Cohomag (Cohomag]

I am actually pretty disappointed with the CNN piece.  I think it's
incredibly superficial and rather exploitative (with all the unneeded
comparisions to communes, cults, hippies, etc.).  This is TV journalism at
its worst.  There's a larger story to be told here -- I was the person who
showed the reporter and cameraman around Berkeley Cohousing -- and I will try
to write it down while it's still fresh in my mind.  I think it will
constitute a lesson for all of us about working with the media.
