I ran across this today and wanted to share. I'm awaiting confirmation via email as to whether this is something ABC really is doing.
From "Good Morning America":
Good Morning America is doing a report on autism activism and neurodiversity. As part of the story, we'd like to include a photo montage of those who are a part of the community. If you or anyone you know is a part of this community and would be willing to be shown in the photo montage that would appear on Good Morning America, please send us your photos. The photos will provide a visual example of the diverse group of people behind autism activism celebrating the voices of autistic people. Please send the photos to Michelle.d.major@abc.com Thank you!
Edited to add:
Thank you to Angela and Camille for the confirmation. Bravo to ABC, let's see how it turns out when the cameras actually roll. Updates to follow...

"Autism is a way of being. It is pervasive; it colors every experience, every sensation, perception, thought, emotion, and encounter, every aspect of existence. It is not possible to separate the autism from the person."

It's for real. I understand that they are having one or more of the "neurodiverse" on GMA tomorrow. I think they are having Tom Insel on there to represent the medical establishment, but I'm not sure about that.
Camille,
Thank you!! Guess I'll have to force myself to watch GMA tomorrow (not a big fan of those morning talk show deals). Anxious to see how it turns out... Thanks again! :)
It may not be tomorrow---- if you don't see it, check Monday.....
Thanks for the heads up Kristina. Guess I'll be setting the DVR for both days then. ;)
It will be on June 10 between 8:30
and 9am est.
