“Derrick J’s Victimless Crime Spree” Street Date Delayed to 2/19

DVDPlease accept my apologies for this unfortunate news:

Our distributor, MVD, (They have been great, by the way.) has had to push the street date of the Director’s Cut DVD back to 2/19. They were moving offices around the new year and said a “comedy of errors” led to missed deadlines, which led to failing to deliver the DVD when-promised.

I wish I had better news, but the DJVCS DVD IS still coming, and it will be worth the wait!

The good news is you can still get your pre-order in at the $8.99 price through Amazon.

Thank you for being patient and understanding.

While you are waiting for the extra month, you could keep busy by writing your review of the movie on Amazon, IMDB, or our site.

Plus, you can watch the trailer for the DVD. Then, start thinking about having a screening of the DVD for your friends, family, or general public! Here’s more about doing that.

Finally, please take a moment to like the DJVCS Facebook page or join the email list to be kept-in-the-loop about the movie.

NH Judicial System Officially Recognizes Free Keene as News Media

Last month the NH Supreme Court announced a new registration process making recording court hearings a little easier for people who take the time to register as news media.

So, it makes the process a little easier, plu

According to the registration guidelines, in order to qualify as “news media” an organization must meet certain criteria:

News media are defined as established organizations, or individuals, that regularly gather, report, edit, broadcast and publish news or matters of public interest, either in print or electronically. The definition of “news media” includes Internet-based “new media” that regularly update content. The definition does not include personal websites. It is the responsibility of online organizations to demonstrate that they meet the definition of “new media.”

Free Keene has met the criteria and is now listed as a “Registered News Organization” on the court’s website along with the AP, WMUR, and various newspapers.
