F911 Exclusive: The Fellowship Adventure Group Dot Com Saga
F.A.G.: "At the end of May, Miramax founders Harvey and Bob Weinstein created the 'Fellowship Adventure Group' to take ownership of 'Fahrenheit 9/11' after Disney's top boss, Michael Eisner, forbid Miramax to be associated with Michael Moore's movie.
Like a lot of people on the day of the announcement, Michael March, did a google search on the 'Fellowship Adventure Group' and it came up empty. Michael registered several 'Fellowship Adventure Group' domains quickly before "anybody" could capitalized on the opporutnity.
Over the past 30 days, Michael has made several attempts to turn "www.fellowshipadventuregroup.com" over to the company with no profit motivate in mind. But, the company's management team has treated his communications with flat-out contempt.
Here is a statement from Michael regarding the situation:
When the May 28th announcement of the formation of the Fellowship Adventure Group was made, a friend of mine noticed that the domain name was available. Thus I promptly registered/rescued it. Since that time, I have been trying in vain to hand it over to the proper owners. In the meantime, I have used the domain to give further exposure into the points Moore makes in Fahrenheit 911.
Hopefully, this story will eventually have a happy ending. Stay tuned.
NOTE: I contacted Michael the other day while searching for the official 'Fellowship Adventure Group' web site. We exchanged a couple of emails and traded links. He has put a RSS F911 blog newsfeed on the sidebar of the site. Check it out. It is cool. It is free. It is simple to do.
