Million Dollar Mistake - FOX and the AJC Made Some Miscalculations. Read on for the Truth....

Click headline for full report and chart of tower revenue for DeKalb County.
If you read the AJC or watched the anchor report on FOX News this morning, you likely heard some very misleading information about cell towers and the money they are capable of brining to a school district like DeKalb County. To clear up the misunderstanding, we've analyzed the cell tower contract and broken it down in this easy to understand spreadsheet. We will be sending a copy to the AJC reporter and FOX news and asking for a retraction or clarification of their reporting (like that ever works, right?).

On a good note, however, we can assume that T-mobile or the school board put out the PR that led to the report. While the information was wrong, it at least confirms one thing - they are sticking to the story that the towers are for the money. That means they are not entitled to the school board exception and will not qualify for the permits necessary to commence groundbreaking.

We'll stay on top of this situation and let you know if there are any new stories to clear up the bogus ones!
