Stupid Blimp
Originally uploaded by Elmoisamonster.
...this stupid blimp kept circling downtown Minneapolis and St. Paul. For several days this blimp with words on both sides stating very vague phrases: "Had it up to here?" on one side and "Enough is enough." on the other. No one could figure out what the hell it meant, channel 4 WCCO news even covered the story and I even found a site where people were blogging over it and speculating as to what it could signify. The only info available was that an ad agency out of Washington D.C. was behind it, the pilot of the blimp also was in the dark on this one. In the end it was reveled, indirectly that the local channel 9 FOX news was behind it. They used the same phrases from the blimp in an ad on tv to promote their new no excuses style of reporting where they would make everyone accountable, kinda' like what channel 5 kstp Eyewitness news had proclaimed around the same time. Anyway, they succeeded in getting the attention they wanted.
