Over the last few days I’ve appeared on radio in a few places and more are scheduled for next week. Of course, we’ve been talking about Robin Hooding:

Thanks to MSN’s Eli Epstein for filing this video report about Robin Hooding and the city’s lawsuit against us. Here’s the text that accompanies the video: (the text is different from the video’s audio)
Keene, N.H., doesn’t normally have a lot in common with Sherwood Forest.
Recently, however, a group of residents calling themselves the “Robin Hooders of Keene” have made the city more similar to the fictional forest than anyone could have imagined. (more…)
A crew from ABC’s Good Morning America came up to Keene from NYC yesterday evening. Here’s their package that aired nationally this morning. (Some footage was sourced from ABC affiliate WMUR-TV in Manchester.)
I’ve been so busy doing interviews today I haven’t had time to post them all and at this point there’s so much coverage about Robin Hooding that there would be too many posts.
So, here’s a google news search for “Robin Hood”. At the time I write this, the first batch of stories at the top of the results contains 34 stories from many major news sources like Reuters, UPI, ABC, NBC, the Telegraph in the UK, FOX, Washington Post, and more!
UPDATE: The story got greenlit on FARK!
It began with front page stories in the Union Leader and Keene Sentinel. Also in newsprint was a brief summary suggesting more coverage to come in the Concord Monitor. When the Washington Times ran a piece on the internet yesterday morning, articles began spreading like wildfire. It became a global story this afternoon after being picked up by the UK Daily Mail, which included screencaps and footage from the Fr33manTVraw channel. Robin Hood and the Merry Men have filmed four segments with competing television news programs as a result of the story’s proliferation on Tuesday. In order of their recording:
A video report from CBS4 Boston. The video is also featured in coverage on Yahoo! News.
A video report from WMUR News 9. This video is also featured in coverage from WCVB Boston and Yahoo! News Canada as well as Yahoo! Screen.
A video report from FOX25 Boston.
A video report from WHDH 7 News. Video is the basis for this written report from NBC News Boston. (more…)

Not all TV news is created equal. 7 News Boston’s Ryan Schulteis’ excellent report on the Robin Hooding lawsuit by the “City of Keene” is the best one yet. Only positive responses from people on the street and the city looks bad for not returning calls for comment.
Click here for their video. Here’s the text of the report:
KEENE, N.H. (WHDH) — A group of men and women in New Hampshire say they’re just trying to help people avoid parking tickets, but Robin Hood and his merry men are looking at a lawsuit and could end up paying the price.
“When you save someone from a ticket people are really appreciative of that,” said Garrett Ean, “Robin Hood of Keene”.
The Robin Hooders patrol the streets of Keene searching for the parking officers and try to beat them — with coins — to the meter.
“My husband had it a few weeks ago. He was just running a little late in one of the stores…and when he came back he had the little card there saying they had put a little extra money in for him. It definitely saved him,” (more…)
