| [> [> Subject: Right before the pageant (probably just a few minutes before) a link will appear on the missteenusa.com site. All you should have to do is click on it. If you are missing any software needed to view the video, boxes will pop up on your screen telling you exactly what you need to do. Unless you have an ancient computer or a poor internet connection, you should be able to get it running with ease. The only problem everyone is likely to face is a poor broadcast that may go out or jerk from time to time. | |

| [> [> Subject: A member of the Trump Organization has been on the USA and Universe panels for several years now. And yes, we put up with it, because we understand that this is an extended job interview for the positions of Miss Teen USA, Miss USA, and Miss Universe. I wouldn't allow someone to hire employees for my company with whom I will work for at least a year, I wouldn't expect the MUO to hire someone without some sort of input either | |
