TDAG Red Cove Tweetstorm

---TWEET STORM on RED COVE DAYS---
Dear TDAG Friends,
1. As soon as @Coveguardians and/or @Dolphin_Project report that Taiji Fishermen discovered a pod of dolphins,
WE NEED TO START TWEETING to ALL MAJOR NEWS OUTLETS.

2. Please find below a list of the major news outlets as provided by Tip Burrows.

3. Here are the GUIDELINES for the TWEETSTORM:
	a) USE ONLY 1 HASHTAG ("#").
	In our case, I recommend using #Tweet4Taiji because the @Coveguardians have the highest number of followers (36.5 k).

	b) TWEETS SHOULD LOOK LIKE THIS (use .@ when tweeting):
	.@Cnni Dolphin pod is driven toward Taiji harbor Sept.4th 2014 #Tweet4Taiji
	.@CNNlive Dolphin pod is driven toward Taiji harbor Sept.4th 2014 #Tweet4Taiji
	.@Cnnn Dolphin pod is driven toward Taiji harbor Sept.4th 2014 #Tweet4Taiji
	.@HLNTV Dolphin pod is driven toward Taiji harbor Sept.4th 2014 #Tweet4Taiji
	...
	...
	go through the entire list of News Outlets!

You can CHANGE YOUR TWEETS accordingly:
	When the pod is in the cove ...
	When the dolphins are slaughtered ...
	When the cove is running red from their blood ...
	When the dolphin's bodies are transported to the butcher house ....

	.@Cnni Pod of Bottlenose Dolphins is fighting for their lives Sept.4th 2014 #Tweet4Taiji
	.@Cnnlive Pod of Bottlenose Dolphins is fighting for their lives Sept.4th 2014 #Tweet4Taiji
	....
	....
	.@Cnn The Cove is running RED #Tweet4Taiji
	...
	...

	c) DO NOT JUST RETWEET someone else's tweets--> This does not count for "Trending" during a Tweetstorm
	d) DO NOT JUST QUOTE someone else's tweets --> This does not count for "Trending" during a Tweetstorm
	e) DO NOT JUST FAVORITE someone else's tweet--> Does not count for "Trending" as well
	f) BUT you can COPY & PASTE someone else's tweets
	g) You can address VIPs like Oprah etc in your tweets
	.@Oprah Pod of Bottlenose Dolphins is fighting for their lives Sept.4th 2014 #Tweet4Taiji
	I have added the handles of a few VIPs who support our battle against dolphin hunts.

Pls see below Steven Thompson's original post on FB:

"A series of significant conversations with mass media insiders took place yesterday. The topic was how to get dolphin hunt real time information into reporters hands and get it approved by editors.
The answer was surprisingly simple: TWEET IT. Twitter is now the gold standard for how editors can prioritize the 100's of stories that cross their in-boxes every day.
Please tweet wisely using popular hash tags like ‪#‎tweet4taiji‬. Please expand the volume and frequency of tweets on Red Cove days to help editors do their job and publish the national and international news stories that pressure the Japanese government into realizing that a good reputation for Japan is important enough to end the barbaric killing of innocent, sentient, intelligent dolphins.

Pod has escaped and hunting boats have gone past the horizon. We will continue to update. #tweet4taiji 8:02am Sept 4, 2014
