Why Aren’t Restaurants Promoting The Princess & The Frog Toys?

Comments

Someone called into WVON 1690 in Chicago to ask why weren’t McDonald’s, Wendy’s or Burger King promoting The Princess & The Frog toys with their children menus?  Good question.

The Princess and the Frog

Traditionally, these figures have been promoted prior to or as soon as new movies for children  hit the big screens.  There has been nothing for this Black Princess whose time was overdue.

I’ll admit that I could be missing something because I do not frequent such places.  But, since the topic was presented, I feel that it is a good question.

So, Disney, what’s up with the lack of promotion for the African American princess?  I’m going to contact them now to find out.  I’ll let you know what happens.

Here’s the response from John Frost, Editor of Disney Blog:

My understanding is that a few years ago Disney made the decision to not associate its products with food that is not healthy for children. That’s not to say it would never happen again, just that they’re cutting back.

We’re in Transition

Comments

Hi there!

I just wanted to let you know that As NOT Seen on TV is currently in transition. We will return by mid-December with a new look, feel, and concept.

Like Mark Victor Hansen, co-author of Cash In A Flash, told me, “Expect great things!”

Stay tuned. We’ll be back. Have a great Thanksgiving!

Peace and blessings,

On Saturday, October 17, 2009, over 150 roller skaters packed Glenwood Roller Rink in Glenwood, Illinois to support the first annual Cancer Awareness Skate-a-thon Fundraiser.

Jo Oladeinde, Visionary & Cancer Survivor

Jo Oladeinde, the visionary behind the event, shared that “the thought [for the event] was placed on my heart.” That was in September.  After approximately six weeks of planning and preparation, her vision came to life.  However, she was not alone in her efforts.

She shared her idea with a young lady who felt her passion for the cause, and her team grew from there.  The following individuals contributed to the successful event: Wildred Bennett, Melissa Harris, Rochelle Hudson, Darlene McGee-Roberts, Anita Roberts, and Shawn Swanigan.

What was behind Jo’s motivation for putting so much passion and effort toward the fundraiser in such a short period of time?  She is a cancer survivor who completed chemotherapy on March 5, 2009.  To ensure that other people have a better understanding of the causes and effects of cancer, all proceeds from the fundraiser will go toward cancer education.

Jo was very pleased with the results of the fundraiser, and plans to hold more cancer awareness skate-a-thons in the future.
