Billboard Campaign Urging Hollywood to “Get The Picture” Gains Momentum
 

HOLLYWOOD, Calif., Mar. 19 /U.S. Newswire/ -- A grassroots effort designed to send a strong message to Hollywood on the eve of the Academy Awards is gaining momentum.

On Friday, March 21, 2003, nationally syndicated talk show host Sean Hannity featured Grassfire’s “Hollywood Get The Picture” billboard campaign. The billboard first appeared earlier this week across from the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood (site of the 75th annual Academy Awards).

“We hope Hollywood honors America this weekend on their biggest day,” says Mr. Steve Elliott, President of Grassfire which represents more than one million citizens. “This billboard represents the sentiments of the vast majority of Americans who appreciate the greatness of our entertainment industry but do not want to see Hollywood undermine our President and our troops – especially on Oscars night.”

The billboard campaign is part of a larger effort that has delivered over 200,000 “I Support The Commander In Chief” petitions to Washington, D.C., leaders and spread the “Support Our Troops message to thousands more. To view the billboard, or for additional information, visit grassfire.

Grassfire is one of the nation’s fastest growing grassroots organizations, representing more than one million citizens across the nation on key conservative and pro-family issues.
