MINDFREEDOM MEDIA NETWORKING ALERT
A national French TV show phoned up MindFreedom to say they are
flying a journalist to the USA next week to investigate ZYPREXA, the
psychiatric neuroleptic drug, which is starting to become a
phenomenon in France.
Today I had a long phone discussion with the journalist, Cécile
Delarue, who is planning to visit the USA fairly SOON.
While there is never a guarantee, she sounds intelligent,
professional and sincerely interested in hearing about the human
rights problems caused by Eli Lilly's fraudulent pushing of Zyprexa.
SHE NEEDS CONTACTS TO MEET SOON!!!!
Three steps to help!
1) Please read the journalist's networking note below
***carefully***, and see if you or someone you know ***match*** what
she is looking for. Repeat, be sure the contact matches what she wants!
2) If you or someone you know is a match, or you know a good source,
please contact Cécile Delarue ****directly***** at the contact info
she provides below. You may also copy me. But to repeat, please
contact her DIRECTLY, not through me.
Cécile's e-mail address is c.delarue at france2.fr
Mine is oaks at mindfreedom.org
3) PLEASE network this urgently to others who may help, especially in
New York, Indiana, Texas.

Hi David,
Thanks a lot for your time and help!
As I told you on the phone, I'm trying to make a feature story about
Zyprexa and the side effects of this medication.
In order to explain and show the story, I need a few things, and
mostly I need to meet people...
I would have liked to interview someone who has been on zyprexa and
has been diagnosed with diabetes.
How did he/she discovered he/she had blood sugar problem ?
Was there gain weight ?
Did he/she first thought that it was linked with the zyprexa ?
Did he/she decided to sue Eli lilly ?
Why ?
How did he / she feel ?
The idea would be to meet the person at his/her place, and talk about
the problem,
I am also willing to show that Zyprexa has also been given to
children, and would like to interview parents, grand parents or close
family of kids who where or are given the drug...
I know it's hard to find people, but it is very important to explain
the problems of the Zyprexa to the French public...
I'll be in the US next week, and would prefer to meet people around
New York, Indiana or Texas.
I'm working for a TV program broadcasted on France 2, the national
network. It's called Complement d'enquete (more or less "additional
investigation") and is one of the leading program news program in
France. We investigate about big social, economical, political and
medical issues through 20 minutes long feature stories.
When could I call you to talk about it and on which number ?
You can reach me at this email, or my office +33156223908. My cell
phone is +33675000561.
I hope you can find some time to help me
Regards
Cécile
