They say imitation is the best form of flattery......

But even if it is inadvertent it has been happening quite a lot with stories out of FSN's New York Bureau this week.

Firstly, the front page of the New York Times, with photo, this morning Tuesday 2nd June is of Ron Skidmore and his wife Dawn watching the announcement of the GM bankruptcy from the halls of UAW 735 in Michigan. FSN spent two days with the Sikdmore's last week and our story ran on France 24 on Friday ahead of the bankruptcy.

Also, CBS Sunday Morning ran a story on "sexting" among teenagers and they too focused on the small town of Tunkhannock in Wyoming PA, and in particular on the Miller family. FSN filed the story last month for AFP.

While we are not saying that CBS or the New York Times is directly imitating FSN, it is nice to know that we covered the stories for our clients ahead of some of the biggest news outlets in the world.
