Military briefers in Iraq to deliver news from
$200K stage
Army Times
The glitzy, high-tech set will have more audio-visual bells and
whistles than anything in the White House or the Pentagon, reports
Robert Hodierne. It was designed by George Allison, 43, who
came up with the $89 million set for ABC's "Good Morning
America." Allison says of the military briefers' stage: "It's
about bringing the level of technology up from the flip chart to the
modern age."
