Daily Talker: Controversial Billboard
A state lawmaker says a billboard is offensive to women and is calling for it to be taken down.
The Gulf Electricity billboard on I-195 in Fall River and along the Mass. Pike in Boston shows a high-heeled bare leg underneath a light switch, next to the words "Are we turning you on yet?"
State Rep. Carole Fiola, D-Fall River, pulled over to take a picture and took to social media to say she was "all riled up" by the message.
"This billboard in Fall River sets women back 50 years," she wrote. "Gulf Electricity please take it down."
Gulf Electricity has not responded to WBZ-TV's request for a comment.
