Well, I suppose I'll just wish you luck. The last time a group I am involved with tried to influence media in a positive direction, we ended up with the craptacular Vanity Fair article. Our media relations gal was physically ill when she saw that the writer (or the editor) had completely ignored her and the positive interviews she had set up in favor of going straight for the fetish aspects.
At the same time, I don't really care very much about media portrayals, anymore. They will happen with or without our participation, it's just a part of being a rather bizarre fandom. If you think you're moderating the script, then good for you.
