Olivia and Kelly Preston joined Rosie O'Donnell to talk about CHEC.
Olivia talked a lot during the interview (which is unusual when she's on simultaneously with another guest); the issue is so close to her heart. They promoted the CHEC video and the web site, www.checnet.org, which had half million hits so far from their previous day's promotion.
Rosie asked if there was scientific proof to link toxins in household products to childhood illnesses. It would add more credibility to the campaign if they could quote a couple of studies (such studies have been funded by CHEC) but as Olivia admits she's no scientist. It's common sense to err on the side of safety.
The charity book Hollywood Moms which features Kelly Preston, Olivia and Rosie O'Donnell and their daughters was mentioned and a copy of this and the CHEC video were given to the audience.
