Think you can write a letter of assignment for SXSW and send it to the e-mail address listed below? I can also give you a story on how new techs will assist in Anon's global revolutionary campaign if you want.

I'm working on it but Michael Hastings is out of the country and hasn't gotten back to me. Does it count that I'm considered to be spokesman for Anonymous by Bloomberg, New York Times, NPR, al-Jazeera, and other parties, including Anonymous itself?

Hello -

We've received your online application for a SXSW Press Credential, but we can not process it until we receive your letter of assignment, as stipulated in item # 2 on the requirements to apply (sxsw.com/press/credentials). The details of what we need are as follows, and once we have received this, we can process your request. Thanks very much for your understanding and action on this, and let me know if you have any additional questions.

STEP 2: Please submit a written letter of assignment from your editor on company letterhead or from an identity-verifiable email address stating the name of the journalist(s) assigned to attend and the scope of the coverage.

Spec photography, portfolio photography, and personal website photography are not valid assignments.
Email all letters of assignment to: press@sxsw.com.
