I am CEO of Broadcast Pioneers of Philadelphia. You certainly have our permission to use the wording from our website.

We have been trying to get an article about Broadcast Pioneers on Wikipedia for years. No one seems to understand how to do this. I don't completely understand how to do this myself. I do our website but I am totally confused by how to do things on Wikipedia.

TV station managers, news anchors and reporters, radio air personalities are part of our membership.

This November we are honoring a couple dozen broadcasters at our annual event. Last year it was attended by 435 people. This year, one of our honorees is Agnes Nixon, creator of several modern day soap operas. You don't get these people to appear (unpaid, by the way) until you are a major force in the market place.

In 2010, Kelly Ripa was our Person of the Year. We paid no fee or no transportation or anything. Her originating station paid all her expenses.

However, for years, you had nothing about us, but you have long articles about people in the Philadelphia broadcast market place that are just nobodys.

I don't understand it. Delete it, if you want. I give up.
