Busy Week Ahead for the Freeway Blogger

I'm investing in cardboard stocks this week. If I come across any in my travels, I'll take a pic of 'em.

Freewayblogger Plans 100 Sign Protest in LA

On Tuesday, Sept. 7th, the Freewayblogger will post one hundred signs on LA area freeways protesting the war in Iraq and the failure to find Osama Bin Laden. The lone activist has posted over 2,000 handpainted signs on California freeways since the war began.

According to the Freewayblogger, freeway signposting is the last opportunity open to the average individual to reach out directly to large numbers of their fellow citizens.

"Every other mass-medium for political speech is controlled by corporate interests. When you write a letter to the editor, it's the editor who decides whether or not it'll be published. When you call into a talk show, the host decides when to cut you off. When you put a sign on the freeway, it says exactly what you want it to say, and thousands of people will read it."
