Gas Station TV Launches Search for National Broadcast TV Star

Faith W | April 23, 2008

DETROIT – April 7, 2008 – Gas Station TV (www.gstv.com), the industry leader in digital away-from-home television, today launches the search for the face of the GSTV Network. The “Gas Station TV’s Wanna Be A BroadcaSTAR™” contest will find and award one U.S. resident with a hosting position on a recurring national broadcast lifestyle segment and a cash prize.

The contest kicks off today with a national call for online entries as well as a live “American Idol-like” casting call in Detroit, GSTV’s home market, on April 12. Aspiring “BroadcaSTARs” may submit auditions online at the BroadcaSTAR homepage at www.beabroadcaSTAR.com until the May 4 deadline for entries. Then, viewers will be able to cast their votes online on the BroadcaSTAR homepage from May 12 – June 30. The winning BroadcaSTAR – to be announced July 17 – will be presented with a $2,500 cash prize and featured as the host of a new recurring lifestyle segment on the GSTV Network.

“As we add diverse, more impactful levels of content to GSTV, we’re looking for fresh broadcast-ready talent,” said David Leider, CEO of GSTV. “We want to give our viewers the power of the vote, to choose the star they’d like to see each time they visit our stations and watch our Network - further driving consumer enjoyment and engagement with our “off-the-couch” TV.”

The winning BroadcaSTAR’s lifestyle segment will feature topics such as technology, entertainment, health, the environment, travel, sports and more. In addition, GSTV’s advertising partners will be able to customize the segment to their specific interests – creating yet another avenue to engage consumers with their brands.

GTSV is leveraging a diverse array of non-traditional media to promote the contest including the BroadcaSTAR official Web site, popular social media networks such as MySpace, Facebook, YouTube and more. GSTV will drive awareness of the search on its 5,000-plus screens atop gas station pumps in more than 400 cities in the top U.S media markets. The entire campaign – including its advertisers and select BroadcaSTAR hopefuls – will have exposure to more than 20 million viewers throughout the year. In addition, sponsors have the opportunity to brand promotions for the event starting from the casting call through the debut of the winner’s lifestyle segment.

“This campaign is another fun, creative and effective way to augment existing marketing strategies and add actionable value to the consumer experience at the pump and beyond,” said David Leider, CEO of GSTV.
