Two Key Clear Channel PRs on Monday.

The first related to CC CEO Bob Pitman being named to the Freee Speech Week advisory councill and naming other media personnel soon. Free Speech week is in October. Read and think hard about the possibilities:

The second is a 5 year extension with the Piedmont Airport: Winston Salem, Greensboro, and High Point NC. Note the repeated reference to advertising options, moreover, note the features and the connection back to their Fly Smart app and think IC Places connection. http://www.nasdaq.com/article/clear-channel-piedmont-triad-international-airport-ink-5-yr-contract-extension-20120720-00356
Lastly, Steve asked us to send a picture of the IC Places ad in Times Square. What just hit me was that Clear Channel was launching its Times Square Sign, that measures one-half foorball field wide and 12 feet high, and is visible to 500k people daily. It was not just about the ad. Steve was sharing that New York was getting a sign to match Hollywood and Vegas. If you've ever been to Times Square and 47th..it's like daylight all times with the sign Clear Channel just added a sun:

In My Opinion: These guyts have orchestrated a behind the scenes set of "done deals" that will support the CC PR. IMO If you put ANY of the IHeart festival on that screen OR make any Punch or ICPA tools availabkel for Free Speech Weeks, it's a home run - straightaway center field. I am sure thre are the doubters, but the ICPA faithful has held this long and in the words of Al Michaels in the 1980 Winter Olympics "Do You Believe n Miracles?"
