  • CNN Heroes/Turner Broadcasting $50,000 Donation
    CNN Heroes/Turner Broadcasting $50,000 Donation We have had many people ask if the CNN Heroes donation was received and if so how it was spent to help our fellow creations. We decided to answer that question for you with this week's column. Thank you again to Turner Broadcasting and the CNN Heroes program for their generous donation and recognition to all of us and The Time Is Now to Help. It has been nearly a year since we first received the phone call that CNN was interested in coming to Wisconsin to interview Sal. They made The Time Is Now to Help, and our philosophy of caring and sharing for our fellow Americans known to people throughout the world. CNN's recognition, investigation, and verification that our charity actually did help thousands of people over the years was a huge inspiration to network others to get involved. Together we ease the pains of the poverty stricken. THIS IS HOW WE HELPED: RENT = $19,025.00 Homelessness is the number one fear of poverty. CNN Heroes/Turner Broadcasting provided rental assistance for seventeen families, disabled, and senior citizens. CNN Heroes/Turner Broadcasting made it possible for us to offer assistance to many of the people writing to us in desperation from other states. With the help of churches, schools, and other volunteer support groups, we were able to provide housing assistance in Georgia, Tennessee, Florida, Missouri, Alabama, Minnesota, Illinois and Wisconsin. The fellow creations we gave our helping hand to would not have known of The Time Is Now to Help without the help from CNN Heroes.

  • The Multiplatform Brand Flows of Heroes
    Selling Across the Spectrum: The Multiplatform Brand Flows of Heroes ERIN GIANNINI, independent scholar ABSTRACT This article examines how the NBC show Heroes and its use of product placement across multiple platforms represented an early response by networks and advertisers to concerns over ad-skipping and alternate viewing platforms by attempting to reconfigure how brand flow operates across multiple platforms. Not only did the series employ ‘second shift aesthetics’ (Caldwell 2003, 135), which represents networks bringing viewer-users back to the programme by ‘further engag[ing] and activat[ing] the text’ (Caldwell 2004, 50), but the products integrated within the text are pulled into the available world of Heroes’ alternative platform’s textual world, particularly Nissan branded cars. As Henry Jenkins writes: ‘Old media are not being displaced. Rather, their framework and structure shifted by the introduction of new technology’ (2006, 3-4). How these products are used within Heroes storylines and its interaction with characters and platform goes beyond simple placement to make the product another character within the show. Further, I examine the way in which Heroes, as a transmedia text, provided many points of entry for viewer-users to interact with it. While an analysis of fan activity is not the focus of this article, it is important to note these possibilities because of the ways in which the promotional apparatus of the network utilized these types of convergences for the series. Yet, in the case of Heroes, this was achieved by suturing new technological abilities of brand extension with an older model of ad- supported television (namely, the single-sponsorship model of early American television), both within the terrestrial television series and across multiple platforms.
