Slipping up verbally and knowingly publishing my real name are two different cases. Whether it was a remarkable or unremarkable event, is irrelevant.

No Dennis...you have it all wrong. This is what has happened: A video tape which was made of my son, relating to the diver's helmet he had received from the "Third Man," was taped for research purposes, only. My son was nine years old. In turn, this video tape was given to a trusted colleague "in strict confidence" for his files, or archives. I found out about two weeks ago that this video tape was sold to a foreign TV show equivalent to our 20/20 or 48 hours and it was also shown here in the U.S. In other words, my younger son's privacy has been sold. I've successfully protected my family's identities all of these years, but all in vain. I saw the tape, and there was my son, full faced. No one contacted me to ask for my permission, nor did I sign a release (which, of course, I wouldn't do). So, FCC laws have been ignored, as well. My son is a minor!! This particular video tape should not have been viewed anywhere. Now my son's little round face is out there. Am I unhappy, Dennis? No. I'm furious and I will get to the bottom of this disgusting event. And when I do, a lot of heads are going to roll. It's one thing for an adult to fight for his/her privacy, but when this happens to a child, especially mine, it's a different matter. It seems to me that, money rules. A little boy was sold out.
