Mailbag: Second Edition

Last month Jenna posted the first edition of the mailbag, where the questions don’t actually come from email, but rather the search queries in our stats program. Today I’m bringing you the second edition. Since search queries are generally simple, the questions don’t get too complex. With that said, let’s get started.

The most popular questions revolved around Brad Paisley and his baby. With “Did Brad Paisley’s wife have her baby?” and “What did Brad Paisley name his son?” being the searched for several times.

How do I contact Chet Flippo?
Good question. There appears to be no way to contact him directly through CMT. The FAQ section on their website says “Please mail your comments, suggestions, and responses to CMT and an editorial representative will send them to the appropriate writer or editor.” Maybe I’m blind, but the contact info is extremely hard to find, which seems to be very anti-web to me. However, if you dig into their privacy policy they provide the email address questions@cmt.com. So to answer your question, I imagine if you send your comments to that address they’ll eventually get to Chet Flippo.
