Catholic League member Mary Ann Kreitzer of Alexandria, Virginia showed the power of the pen when she successfully got Tri-Media Marketing Services to drop CHICK publications from their advertising list. CHICK, one of the most infamous world-wide publishers of anti-Catholic tracts, was allowed to market its non-Catholic material in an advertising packet aimed at home schooling families.
Though Mary Ann Kreitzer’s initial letter to Tri-Media failed to move the company, she followed through with another missive, this time letting Tri-Media know that she was contacting the Catholic League. Her second effort scored: Tri-Media president Neal Siegel wrote to CHICK publications informing him of his decision to exclude them from all future mailings.
