OK.. so to all of you responding.. what do I do.
I get calls from media asking if this was me.
I have a LOT, as in a LOT of money invested in my business. I am very professional, do not make mistakes and yet I'm getting calls because of these schmucks.

Any thoughts on how to make them responsible?

I think just gave you the answer in the post above. 50,000 volts will definitely get their attention. :)

You're pretty good at thinking before speaking so why not respond with a question to their question. Ask if they would be interested in an article explaining what you do and what you do it with, interjected with how the professionals are extremely concerned about the sudden proliferation of irresponsible people that have obatined their toys without receiving any guidance or training? Show that grandstanding is not the norm but the exception.

Oh, thanks for doing me an honor;)

But I can try!

Gregory McNeal wrote an interesting article for Forbes that speaks directly to the recent "journalism" coverage of drones, and it might be worth passing on if they are currently ignoring your requests to offer responsible, accurate information. No one likes to be told how to do their job, but at this point there are so many inaccurate stories floating around out there, maybe you can appeal to their inner Edward R Murrow...

..and then if that doesn't work, I think the taser is fair game :)

I contacted two national news media outlets after they ran stories about "drones" and offered to explain to them in detail how all of this stuff works. Neither were interested. :cold:
