According to Ad Age, a Pennsylvania animal shelter managed exactly that in its ongoing crusade against puppy mills.
Last spring, Main Line Animal Rescue bought a billboard four blocks from Harpo, Ms. Winfrey’s Chicago studio. The show’s producers quickly contacted the shelter and enlisted its help in a hidden-camera investigation of various puppy mills and pet stores, led by Lisa Ling.
Now, motivational speaker Jiulio Consiglio is running a billboard one block from Ms. Winfrey’s West Loop studio to hype his book, Challenge Your Thoughts.
