VT on TV Posted: Wed June 9, 2010 04:50 PM UTC
Just wanted to share with you guys that VT was featured on Israeli channel 2 just a few minutes ago! The topic was that many people choose to book vacations on Internet and then cry, literally, that a centrally located hotel that looked nice on a picture turned out to be a real dumb miles away from a city center.
It was said that before people book on booking.com, hotels.com and similar sites they should check on Virtual Tourist where info is accurate and pictures are real and not photoshopped! Then full screen pictures of VT pages were shown!
I'm happy as a clam just because this is the first time I see VT being exposed on Israeli TV, and it's prime time! Yaaay

Hi Courtney,
oops, I see I wrote "dumb" instead of "dump".. well, I'm sure everybody knew what I meant :)
It's Channel 2, the program is called "Saving Plan".
Actually, I'm meeting with one of their crews tomorrow (they are filming at my workplace) so I can ask them where I can get the video. I'll drop you a line tomorrow.

That would be great! In the meantime, I'll check with my clip guy and see if he can track it down, but I doubt he can. Thanks so much!

I sure they will post it on their website (mako.co.il) in a week or so. This is what they usually do.

That is very Awesome Nathalie Prime time is even better .
I have been looking for years to catch something about VT here locally in Ontario or in the Detroit area .
Hope someone will find a copy of this program .
They seem to tape everything these days now and rerun it sometimes .

<Is it Italian or Arab TV?>
Is there an Italian TV in Israel? I understand from the OP that it was Channel 2 of the Israeli TV.
