Media Coverage: The Future 


Dr. Janda and the Institute are very proud that Public Television has come to the forefront at delivering the Institute’s message to the public’s doorstep. In addition to Mr. Alan Alda’s show, Scientific American Frontiers, which was broadcast on Public Television, they have also produced a show at the Atlanta affiliate, WPBA entitled: The Power of Prevention: Making Your Family Safer. The show has now been completed and the distribution arm for Public Television, the American Public Television, has made the decision to distribute the show nationally to all Public Television affiliates. The distribution will occur in August and air dates will start approximately in December of 2003. This show will air over the next several years. Hopefully, on every television market in our country. The show is scheduled to be syndicated in the telethon series format in the months of December, March, June and August over the next 2 years. The book, The Awakening of a Surgeon, is featured, as well as, the Institute’s work in the show. Mr. David Brandon, CEO of Domino’s Pizza, has graciously stepped up to the plate and has made Domino’s the corporate sponsor of this very important public television presentation. The purpose of this show is to make families safer across the United States by delivering the information that we have developed at the Institute and in the book, The Awakening of a Surgeon. Please call your local Public Television Station and make them aware that this show exists and that it is imperative that it be shown in your community as soon as possible.
