Lowry Mays
Who: CEO of Clear Channel Communications
What: Clear Channel paid for billboards across Florida after the 2004 showing Bush’s picture larger than life and declaring him "Our Leader".
Detail: On the billboards it stated this was a "political public service message brought to you by Clear Channel Outdoor". There’s pictures of this thing all over the web. Clear Channel corporate office, located in San Antonio, Texas, issued a statement that the billboard was a product of their Jacksonville office. Their statement was "Clear Channel Outdoor markets are operated locally. Local managers determine what copy to use when a location has time that is not sold to an advertiser". Again, the Republican Whoring way is not to take any responsibility for departments under their control. Since Clear Channel owns 1,182 radio stations, 145,895 billboards in the US, and 39 TV stations, why would they have to have any accountability? Oh yes, they can choose who they sponsor and they sponsor Rush Limbaugh, druggie and Republican Whore extraordinaire (Rush is too hackneyed for this list).
