How would I start a campaign for change?

I want to start a campaign to change the way the people treat the press after watching a documentary or the paparazzi I don't think anyone learnt anything from Princess Diana's death. She was killed by being chased by paparazzi like so celebrities are now and if no one does anything another innocent life will be lost. My question is how do I start a campaign to change this?How would I start a campaign for change?
I'd start a campaign for people to get a life and not worship celebrities, then we won't have copy-hungry paparazzi chasing around endangering life and limb. I don't hold out much hope though; the mediocre is in the ascendant these days.How would I start a campaign for change?
I would suggest two books to read first





1) Grassroots buy ';Ask Amy Richards and Jennifer Baumgartner http://www.amazon.com/Grassroots-Field-G鈥?/a>





and 2) A new book that just came out Shelly Rachanow ';What would you DO if you ran the world.'; http://www.amazon.com/What-Would-You-Ran鈥?/a>





Both authors have web sites for getting more involved in feminist activism and saving the world. But most of all give guidance on starting a campaign on whatever you want to protest.





Also, here are some more tips on your campaign:


1) Get all the facts straight and have all the answers that need to be answered, research, research, reasearch.


2) Recruit members with posters or start a petition to have people sign it and be sent to those in power. What is your particular cause you want to start and who in Political power can help.


3) What outside agencies can help you? Schools? Talk to reporters in newspapers and ask why would the paparazzi do such a thing and what do they know NOW to avoid? Maybe they can suggest organizations to help. Maybe some photographers quit because of this tradegry?


4) Contact the local authorities and find out the laws that protect people from stalking famous actors and actresses. What laws, if any, protect the paparazzi and what changes have been made since then.


5) Join a web group or start your own web blog and see if they are more people out there who feel the same way, I am sure some famous actors and actresses might even join your cause because they have had problems with the media.


6) Write letters to local newspapers and famous magazines who hire the paparazzi and what guidelines they now follow to protect the photographers from this tradegy from happening ever again. Some may respond favorably and join your cause.


7) Contact the State House or your local government and see about starting a bill or ask politicians to help start a bill (which may become a law) for your cause. What's the process where you live and how does an idea become into a law?


Good luck.
Princess Di was killed because her driver had too much to drink and over-reacted to being followed by press vehicles, speeding and loosing control of the car, when all he needed to do was to drive away and let them follow if they must.
P. Di is dead because her retarded driver was driving drunk. . .
First you should ask on here if people actually want a change.
Ask Barak obama
