Corporate Thuggery

The Globe and Mail has more today on the saga of illegalsigns.ca versus Clear Channel (Clear Channel tried to sue the site's owner for having the temerity to inform the city that Clear Channel's billboards might be illegal). Spacing's Dale Duncan expands on the theme here.

Really I'm disgusted by Clear Channel. Get out of Toronto, Clear Channel, we don't want your bullying here. Also, I've heard from Americans that your radio stations suck - so there.

Edit: I just saw that Astral, another billboard conglomerate that wants to bid on Toronto's street furniture is also wanting to sue illegalsigns.ca. Astral, you aren't any better.
