Mondo Times editors Boulder, Colorado USA | Posted at 2:00pm on Tuesday, September 1st, 2009 | ION TV must be a contender for silly publicity stunt of the year.
On September 3, 2009, the network will attempt to break the Guinness World Record for the Largest Moving Box to celebrate the premiere of its original series "Durham County."
The record attempt will take place at Times Square in New York City.
The current Guinness World Record for largest cardboard box measured 37 ft 10 in x 15 ft 1.5 in x 7 ft 7 in, and was manufactured by students of Aarhus Business College in Aarhus, Denmark, back in 2007.
Official Guinness World Records guidelines mandate that the box must be assembled from the same material as a standard cardboard box is made from and that all reasonable standards of workmanship are adhered to. The structure when fully assembled must exceed the previous record measurements in all dimensions, and be measured by a qualified surveyor.

Eric Kallgren Boulder, Colorado USA | Posted at 9:50pm on Tuesday, April 21st, 2009 | ION Television and its parent company have serious money troubles and may file for bankruptcy protection, Variety reported on April 15, 2009:
"Ion Media Networks has raised its profile in Hollywood during the past few years by buying off-network rights to series including "Criminal Minds," "Boston Legal," "Ghost Whisperer" and "NCIS."
But now the West Palm Beach, Fla.-based broadcaster, formerly known as Pax TV, is facing balance sheet problems. The company disclosed Wednesday that it was in discussions with lenders on "a comprehensive recapitalization" of its balance sheet. That translates to an effort to restructure its considerable debt, which stands at $2.7 billion, according to the Wall Street Journal. Company is primarily saddled by debt racked up years ago under its former owner, Lowell "Bud" Paxson.
A bankruptcy filing could well be in the cards for Ion if it has trouble finding takers for its debt in this distressed credit market. Biz insiders with business at Ion said they were closely watching the situation, but execs stressed that to date there have been no issues with payments being made on time."
