Didn't Ted Turner have a finger in the outdoor advertising business in Atlanta?? Just curious.

Fox reports, you decide. Coming to a billboard near you!

I wish our local billboards were as interesting.

I love Fox...but they should just buy the billboard. The owner has a right to put or not put whatever he wants on it. The other alternative would be to see about putting up another billboard nearby on another property. I'm not familiar with the location...is there anywhere else Fox could taunt CNN?

i actually saw one of the billboard messages on television not too long ago... and yes, it was taunting CNN--loudly and clearly... i wish i could remember what the message was... but it made me think that it must be fun to work at FOX News...

i guess the great thing about this particular billboard is it's visible from both FOX and CNN...

Fox should just buy the entire building, paint it up like those city busses.

Does Fox need RN's....maybe I could be there to help with camera light "dehydration" or something like that...maybe be there when the great A.C.(whose name must never be mentioned in full with out accompanying photo's) comes to do an interview or something.
Hey I'll even be a janitor or something...!

"Didn't Ted Turner have a finger in the outdoor advertising business in Atlanta?? Just curious."

Ted inherited an outdoor bidness from his dad, and it provided him with the capital to get into television. Billboards were the seed money.
