Cynopsis: Kids!
03/09/10

Good morning. It’s Tuesday, March 9, 2010, and this is your first early morning Kids briefing.

ABC Family picks up the network TV premiere rights to new Tim Burton directed and Disney‘s 3D Alice in Wonderland (PG) movie from Disney-ABC Domestic Television.  ABC Family’s deal will see the movie, starring Johnny Depp, Mia Wasikowska, Anne Hathaway, Helena Bonham Carter and Crispin Glover, premiere on the network in 2012.  The movie opened last Friday, March 5, 2010 and has already grossed $116.3 million in domestic box office.  While the terms of the deal were not announced, Variety reports it the deal could be worth an estimated $30 million.


AT&T is launching a public awareness campaign called It Can Wait.   While aimed at all drivers and wireless users, It Can Wait is particularly targeted to young drivers.  Here’s the concept  AT&T is asking wireless users to take a look at the most recent text message on your device and decide if reading and/or responding to that text so important that it couldn’t wait for your attention until you are in a situation that won’t potentially cause an accident.  The print/TV/radio/online/in-store campaign, which will rollout in the coming months, features real stories and the actual text message that was sent/received prior to an actual life altering traffic accident.  The tagline for the campaign is Txtng & Drivng … It Can Wait.  AT&T is also supporting the campaign via a new Facebook application at www.facebook.com/att , and also plans to promote it via Twitter (@ShareATT).
