Couldn't these people have just bought space on billboards to advertise their show?

What was going through the minds of these people at that network? No one bothered to pick up a phone to the legal department to see if it is even legal to just place advertisements around town at random locations.

Let's even forget for a second that these advertisements were mistaken for bombs with lights, batteries, and electrical tape. A corporation just can't place advertisements where they want.

Doesn't this say a lot about the responsibility and maturity levels of the people in charge of this company?
