<br />MR. BALSIS: And what was the reason for that? <br /> <br />MS. KAWAUCHI: There were persons in the media who wanted to be included in press <br />releases and other announcements that were made by the office, and so in order to make <br />sure that persons who wanted to be included on the lists were, we came up with the form. <br /> <br />MR. BALSIS: Do you know of anyone who was not included in being asked to request <br />these? Rephrase that. Was there anyone out there in media land that you were remiss in <br />not asking them to complete one of these so that you would have an easier way of <br />communication? <br /> <br />MS. KAWAUCHI: There are persons who are included on our press release media <br />contact list who would have not filled the form out. But my understanding is that <br />everybody who has filled the form out was included and did receive news releases and <br />press releases. <br /> <br />MR. BALSIS: Does anyone here have any questions? <br /> <br />MR. HENRICKS: Yes, I do. Ms. Kawauchi, do you know Ms. Hunt? <br /> <br />MS. KAWAUCHI: I am familiar— <br /> <br />MR. HENRICKS: --Do you know Ms. Hunt personally? <br /> <br />MS. KAWAUCHI: We’re not friends, but I do know her. <br /> <br />MR. HENRICKS: But you know her. <br /> <br />MS. KAWAUCHI: Yes, I do. <br /> <br />MR. HENRICKS: Is there any bad feelings you have against her? <br /> <br />MS. KAWAUCHI: I don’t have bad feelings against her, no. <br /> <br />MR. HENRICKS: All right. In any of your times that you’ve been in confrontation with <br />her, have you felt that you have singled her out to withhold information from her? <br /> <br />MS. KAWAUCHI: No, I do not. I believe that every interaction I’ve had with Ms. Hunt <br />has been courteous, fair, and I’ve treated her equally, as I have treated all media—to the <br />extent that I can. <br /> <br />MR. HENRICKS: You know, some of her testimony, and she undoubtedly disagrees with <br />you. She feels that you have singled her out in some manner. Is that correct? You heard <br />her say that. <br /> <br />MS. KAWAUCHI: I did listen to her testimony, yes. <br />12 <br /> <br />
