Local chapters can say something about whats going on, they can't make claims on behalf of others, but they can interpret written statements like any other blogger or news outlet. Just remember that wmf sends press releases on behalf of wmf, nobody else do that.

Sure. Actually the New York chapter probably sends some press releases to US media too; I'm not sure.

Point of clarification -- the Wikimedia Foundation sends out press releases to international media, not just US media. We have no plans to send out a press release on this issue.
Of course, what I meant was that only the WMF sends press releases to US media, not that the WMF only sends press releases to US media.
