hi Kristin,

thanks for contacting us. Diane's story is certainly an important one. 
Since Indymedia sites are volunteer-run and based on an "open publishing" 
system, the best way to make sure a story is covered is to post your own 
stories and photos to IMC sites yourself. The Austin, India, and SF IMC 
sites are probably the most pertinent, but please feel free to post to 
Seattle as well. Please feel free also to re-post ti Indymedia sites 
important stories like the Guerilla News story you mention.

Again, thanks for your interest.

Jonathan
