My recollection was that Cheshire applies for press credentials to
these sorts of things using the name of the press bureau from the old
Darrin McGavin KOLCHAK:THE NIGHT STALKER series (Independent World
News?); the PR types weren't in the habit of checking up on this.
Last I'd heard, he'd gotten out of bit-pushing and was doing something
fairly mundane somewhere in Florida.  He's been keeping a VERY low
profile the last few years.
