PRESS RELEASE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
February 27, 2008
San Francisco, CA
The Billboard Liberation Front today announced a major new advertising
improvement campaign executed on behalf of clients AT&T and the
National Security Agency. Focusing on billboards in the San Francisco
area, this improvement action is designed to promote and celebrate the
innovative collaboration of these two global communications giants.
“This campaign is an extraordinary rendition of a public-private
partnership,” observed BLF spokesperson Blank DeCoverly. “These two
titans of telecom have a long and intimate relationship, dating back to
the age of the telegraph. In these dark days of Terrorism, that should
be a comfort to every law-abiding citizen with nothing to hide.”
AT&T initially downplayed its heroic efforts in the War on
Terror, preferring to serve in silence behind the scenes. “But then we
realized we had a PR win on our hands,” noted AT&T V.P. of Homeland
Security James Croppy. “Not only were we helping NSA cut through the
cumbersome red tape of the FISA system, we were also helping our
customers by handing over their e-mails and phone records to the
government. Modern life is so hectic – who has time to cc the feds on
every message? It’s a great example of how we anticipate our customers’
needs and act on them. And, it should be pointed out, we offered this
service free of charge.”
Commenting on the action, and responding to questions about pending
privacy litigation and the stalled Congressional effort to shield the
telecoms from these lawsuits, NSA spokesperson [REDACTED] remarked:
“[REDACTED] we [REDACTED] condone [REDACTED] warrantless [REDACTED],
[REDACTED] SIGINT intercepts, [REDACTED] torture [REDACTED] information
retrieval by [REDACTED] means necessary.”
“It’s a win-win-win situation,” noted the BLF’s DeCoverly. “NSA
gets the data it needs to keep America safe, telecom customers get free
services, and AT&T makes a fortune. That kind of cooperation
between the public and private sectors should serve as a model to all
of us, and a harbinger of things to come.”
