I got an email from Bill (who founded NAAFA back in 1969) saying that Associated Press did a widely distributed report on obesity having found a niche in American marketing. Bill was interviewed and they reported on Bill's Amplestuff venture which sells a variety of products for fat customers. They also mentioned Kelly Bliss. Click to read the report.

This report is either old, or someone hasn't been checking their facts well. Freedom Paradise hasn't catered to fat people in quite some time.

They just picked up Deidra's Today Show interview on my local NBC affiliate as well, although instead of using Amplestuff, they used the other company... can't for the life of me recall the name right now.
... uhm.... supersizeworld I think.

Needless to say, Bill Fabrey has been one of my longtime heroes.
