How do you get a press release published on Netscape's home page new section?

I am looking over Netscape's "NEWS" section now, if that's what you
are referring to.  Can you show me a link to the exact page you are
talking about?

Actually I would like to submit my press release to "Off Beat News"
Please view our website www.wizmark.com I think you will better
understand the nature of our press release.

Ok, here?s the deal. NETSCAPE NEWS appears to be a product of CNN

NETSCAPE NEWS
http://cnn.netscape.cnn.com/

So, it makes sense that Netscape?s OFF BEAT NEWS feature, which just
happens to ironically bear the title of a CNN News feature of the same
name, is probably being fed by CNN; the stories are probably culled
frome those that already made CNN's OFF BEAT feature.

CNN OFF BEAT NEWS
http://www.cnn.com/offbeat/

I don?t mean this in a derogatory way, but as an entrepreneur you are
no doubt interested in the honest truth: Clever as your ?product? is,
it?s not an original concept (I?ve seen similar products in other
places in the US). Your ?press release? is more of a quirky
advertisement than, well, breaking off beat news, so I can?t envision
it being considered a worthy news story even for CNN?s OFF BEAT NEWS
column ? which tends to stick to bona fide (albeit odd) news events of
wide public interest. Having said that, I don?t think the pipeline to
Netscape?s News is likely to be opened to you for this particular
project.

If it's any consolation, I dig it though.

Is there something else I can do for you perhaps?

Though I'm sure you're well intentioned and unquestionably an infinite
source of information Me thinks you missed the mark on this one!

PS: The NY Times, ABC, Anderson Cooper of CNN, CNBC Power Lunch and
BBC London have already showcased our patented concept..(Saw a Talking
Urinal elsewhere Humm!) Google us as Wizmark Urinal then contact me
through our website www.wizmark,com to find out more about this
project. We are still looking for new venues for our press release.
Got any ideas??

I was referring to urinal "advertising" in general when I mentioned
that I'd seen it elsewhere. I hope someone else has some better
insight into how you could get your advertisment in "the news".
