Lucy-

Certainly. I am in Dallas at the moment, but am equipped to do the interview via Skype. I believe that 8 pm would work best for me. Feel free to call or e-mail if you need further info or need to set things up further.

Dear Mr. Brown,

I wanted to reach out to you to see whether you might be available to join us for an interview tomorrow to discuss the media fallout following the publication of the controversial Rolling Stone article on McChrystal. You've written a great piece on why the hacks hate Hastings and I would love to invite you to discuss this issue further.

I'm not sure where you are based - NYC? If so we have studios at 1 Penn Plaza. If you happen to be travelling tomorrow we have studios in DC, LA and Miami and can also arrange a live interview via Skype video chat. All you'd need is access to the internet, a free Skype account and a web cam (the built in laptop ones usually work just fine). As for times - we broadcast at 4, 5, 7 and 8 PM EST so if you were interested and available, just let me know which hour works best for you.

This would be a 5-8 minute interview for RT (Russia Today) -- a 24/7 English-language news channel that focuses on providing an innovative and distinct angle on world views. Our viewership spans over six continents.

I hope to hear back from you soon!

All my best,

Lucy
