Anti-Non-Frenchism

14 12 2010
Bonjour! I just got your TV5MONDE mailer with the free 3 months
limited time offer of your French-language network. I went to my
roomate, “Hey, did you see the mailer for the TV5MONDE free TV offer?”
He stared at m blankely…he never GOT the mailer.

I thought to myself, “Why Tyler? Why did he not get the mailer?” and
then it hit me…

Simple.

You’re racists.

I have a french last name so I got the mailer but you ignored good
hard-working people just because their great-grandparents were born in
the wrong country.

I will NOT be accepting the TV5MONDE free installation offer and am
deeply deeply embarrassed for all honest and ethical francophones
(spelling?).

Please rethink you mailing methods in the future as to not be hate-based.

Au revoir,
Tyler Tremblay

Mr. Tremblay,

TV5MONDE apologizes for any frustration, discomfort or nuisance that our promotional brochure may have caused you.

The company recently purchased a list of contacts from a marketing company that had narrowed down individuals as either having “French Heritage”, “French Interest”, or being a “French Language Instructor”.

Notwithstanding, this list was formulated and purchased via a different company, and was not compiled by TV5MONDE.

If I can get your postal address, I will try my best to remove you from the list.

Once again, our sincere apologies.

Kind Regards,

Client Relations

TV5MONDE,
I appreciate the apology but am withholding my acceptance of the
apology until I sort this out.

What is the name of this marketing company and who can I speak with
there? I want to make sure that this blatant anti-non-frenchism never
happens again.

Thank you,

Tyler

TV5MONDE,
Apology officially rejected.

How much is TV5MONDE after the free time expires?

Ciao!

Tyler
