I hope someone specifically invites the NPR reporters that recently covered Jim Cook's passing and Father & Families lawsuit to cover this conference. And since those were east coast reporters and this is an LA conference, specifically asks those reporters who at NPR West, or at KCRW or KPCC they should approach. I'd also consider speaking to Renee Montagne, co-host of Morning Edition who works out of NPR West in Culver City just a few miles from the LAX Marriott.
