Yay for Claris!
That was one hell of a letter, hope it gets published, and shame on Fox.
Inara: We thought we lost you. Mal: Well, I've been right here.

They're selling the claddagh ring. Well, that got a "hey, that's not for sale!" reaction out of me.
Not just that -- I'm stunned that they had it lying around and neatly catalogued almost five years after it last appeared onscreen. But, hey, Fox wouldn't lie to us...
Anbd yeah, the auction's pretty sleazy. I can't believe no one wants to keep some of this stuff -- they have Dawn's dress from "The Gift" up there.

Exactly, Lyra. Which ties back into what I said upthread. The things are a dime a dozen. How do we know it was the claddagh ring? Fox bastards.

But there's a certificate of authenticity!

I just have this mental image (Futurama style) of aliens finally revealing themselves to us and announcing "Once FOX started broadcasting Joe Millionaire II, we decided your species is simply too crass to be allowed to exist."

Joining the chorus: excellent letter, although, like Ken B, I doubt that shaming Fox executives is an easy task.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
I doubt that shaming Fox executives is an easy task.
It'd have to be like Bartleby and Loki vs. The Mooby The Golden Calf Board of Directors in Dogma.

True, indeed.

Eh. If we get the press interested, no doubt they'd declare themselves shocked! shocked! and say the proceeds were supposed to go to charity, and the decision to pocket the money was made by some convenient scapegoat.
And then they'd give 10% to the Fox Kid Cares foundation, which funds childcare for the children of needy Fox executives and good Scotch for their parents.
