Greetings HHSE Friends - Sometimes TIMING is everything.
It was 50 years ago this summer that Michael Martin Murphey's iconic song WLDFIRE hit #1 in the USA and many major countries worldwide. Accordingly, this benchmark achievement has turned into a fortuitous springboard for a feature publicity angle in support of our movie, "WILDFIRE: The Legend of the Cherokee Ghost Horse."
Although our L.A.-Based Entertainment PR firm has already arranged many feature stories, TV appearances and radio interviews in support of "WILDFIRE" - the launch on Friday, Sept. 26 from USA TODAY and their GANNETT Newspaper holdings is extremely exciting and high profile.
The feature in USA today will also be fed to the Gannett owned local newspapers for re-publication that opening weekend... which includes DETROIT FREE PRESS, DAILY OKLAHOMAN, NASHVILLE TENNESSEAN, MEMPHIS COMMERCIAL APPEAL, ARIZONA REPUBLIC, CINCINNATI ENQUIRER and many more! In fact, Gannett owns over 200 Daily Newspapers, 1,000 "Weekly" edition newspapers and 130 high-traffic websites. Their overall reach is over 400-million impressions... and the WILDFIRE story is expected to reach a large percentage of this readership / circulation. Best of all, the timing is on the OPENING DAY for the film's release, Sept. 26.
Much more to come...
