The last time atheism was mentioned in Omaha local media was when people got mad about our billboard last summer[1]. In other words, the last time they talked about us was to talk about how people hated us.
With Apostacon[2] coming up, the organizers have been offering our local media the opportunity to talk to any of the speakers[3], highlighting Nathan Phelps[4] and David Silverman[5]. They even approached the local radio show hosted by 2 atheists[6]. After speaking to some of the organizers about it, it appears that what's happened is the local media intentionally ignoring the atheists.
With our proximity to Topeka, Omaha is familiar[7] with Westboro Baptist Church[8]. And, with them currently suing our state[9], it makes sense that they'd want to talk to a member of the Phelps family who got away from Westboro's hate. But no. Complete silence from local media.
And, of course, they should familiar enough with David Silverman[10] to consider him worth talking to. Complete silence.
If you'd like to help, please contact, POLITELY, any our media outlets and request they give the atheists the attention they deserve.
