Basicly, a new station has an online feature that allows you to submit callelations online and they rotate on the bottom of the screen during the news, some ppl found out that you can sign up as legit business, get your notice reviewed, and it's then passed on to the rotations, but they also allow you to log-in later and change info as new developments happen, so these ppl would sign up as real businesses and then a half hour, log-in and change the messages with some funny results.

It's kind of sad that today's readers don't know enough about older culture and songs like that to immediately recognize the number, so the writer has to append an explanation. We're losing our older culture.

I'm a child of the 80's and don't recognise it - is it something that stayed stateside?
