Actually, the idea seems to be make Deltas media superstars to the Reg
public, not Deltas.
I'd have to dig a little deeper to find the section of the background that
talks about Delta/media endorsements. I'm not even sure what book it's in.
But it's there, just because it struck us as so odd after all the lengths
gone to to pain Deltas in general (unless you're government or Triumph
lackeys) as having a lousy lot in life. Unfortunately, I don't have time at
the moment.
