The 'Save Robert Irvine' Campaign Begins

Hi All,

In the past couple of days the Save Robert! website has gone from 12 hits a day to over 200. Also the petition has jumped from 60 members to almost 130, after I removed some of the fake or suspect signatures.

This says something, the more people who are aware of this campaign, the more who want to participate.

The 'Save Robert Irvine' Campaign Begins

As the host of the SAVE ROBERT! campaign, I would like to say that I'm a little overwhelmed by the response. In two days we have gone from averaging 25 hits a day to well over 400 a day. The online petition also jumped by 60 signers.

Of course I would make myself available to media, if they wanted, but as a low level grass roots organization we do not really have anyone knocking down our door.

But please make sure you visit http://saverobert.bravehost.com and sign the petition and let Food Network know that you still want Robert as host.

Does anyone else think it's kind of funny that only the host was fired over the business of his lying on his resume? I mean what about the people who where checking his creidentials, or the people who touted that hype in the first place. I beleive that FN only added insult to injury when it fired it's host, who beleived (or cared) that the queen would give a knighthood to a chef. That said, the rules are a mule, but they are the rules. He shouldn't have lied, but maybe now he can get together a show that showcases his talents, with a network that appreciates their people.

I'm a little unclear why 'Earl of Sandwich' is being held up with a real name for ridicule Raphael.

I think that'd be a sinkhole, PerkyMac. =D

Impressive: the petition is up to 123 signatures, including 'Eagle Archambeault' and 'Earl of Sandwich'.

So dlairson, your HIT count has gone through the roof, but you're only up to 60 signers...methinks that says it all.
