This Just In ...
Kevin Fischer is a veteran broadcaster, the recipient of over 150 major journalism awards from the Milwaukee Press Club, the Wisconsin Associated Press, the Northwest Broadcast News Association, the Wisconsin Bar Association, and others. He has been seen and heard on Milwaukee TV and radio stations for over three decades. A longtime aide to state Senate Republicans in the Wisconsin Legislature, Kevin can be seen offering his views on the news on the public affairs program, "InterCHANGE," on Milwaukee Public Television Channel 10, and heard filling in on Newstalk 1130 WISN. He lives with his wife, Jennifer, and their lovely baby daughter, Kyla Audrey, in Franklin.
Can you imagine if one of these turned up in Franklin?
I’m talking about a digital billboard.Oh, the carnage!
The calls to 9-1-1!
The wailing and gnashing of teeth!
Women and children, running out into the middle of the street, screaming and crying!
Digital billboards, it turns out, do not cause major distractions and are not considered hazardous.
They do allow those evil companies that create jobs to exercise freedom of speech and advertise.
But we couldn’t have that in Franklin.
My goodness, what would that do to our rural 1940’s flavor?
Franklin is in the midst of trying to figure out just what to do about billboards in general. My guess is they will be viewed to be as horrible as global warming.
