WCGV-TV (Milwaukee, WI) partnered with Serve (promotion/marketing agency), United Way and radio station 100.7 Jams for this video contest directed towards males 18+ in the Milwaukee market. The goal of the contest is to bring attention to teenage pregnancy and deadbeat dads by showcasing 30 seconds spots uploaded by fathers in the area about various topics that affect young males. One outstanding video will receive an Apple iPad and will be used to create a TV commercial. What a wonderfully unique contest!
What a rockin’ contest! Cornbread, a morning radio show host for WIL-FM (St. Louis, MO), hosts this idol competition for local wannabe country singers.

The Cornbread Idol winner will be awarded a trip for two to Nashville to compete at Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge! Plus, one lucky listener wins a trip for two to the Tootsie’s 50th Anniversary Concert in Nashville just for voting. (Yes, even the voters win – this contest just keeps getting better!)
