Two congressmen want an investigation of whether the U.S. Forest Service illegally hired a public relations firm to promote a plan to cut wildfire danger by increasing logging in Sierra Nevada forests.

This is kinda hard to believe. The USFS hired advertisers? Why not show Smokey with a chainsaw in PSA spots "Only You can sue to stop me." (couldn't resist).

Seriously though, why not do television Public Service Announcements (PSA) on the plan using Smokey to explain why thinning is a good thing?

Was that a rhetorical question?
