Your comment that the League is not interested in satellite operations is, in my opinion, also proper.
Sorry if I am repeating myself, but WE are responsible for educating the ARRL and the media when it comes to amateur satellites.
We should NOT expect ANY non-AMSAT entity to know anything about this aspect of the hobby.
It is up to us who are involved in our "specialties" to convey - intelligently and using proper, approved methods - that information to appropriate sources.
Most of our news comes from "media alerts" nowadays. Knowing HOW to contact and WHOM to contact with media alerts is OUR responsibility.
