Morris Multimedia Inc., the parent company of the Forsyth County News, announced Thursday the acquisition and launch of Local Media Outdoor with the purchase of its first digital sign from Incorvaia Media.

The digital billboards are located at the corner of Tribble Gap Road and Elm Street across from Forsyth Central High School and will be used to display FCN client advertisements and marketing promotions, but will also show breaking news, upcoming events and general information as driven by the news team at the paper.

“We see ourselves as a one-stop shop for digital marketing services going forward, and we see this as an avenue that people are demanding and a great way to help local businesses be successful,” said Charles Hill Morris Jr., of Morris Multimedia.

Incorvaia Media is transitioning from static to digital signs, and Morris Jr. said “it makes sense for us to be in the digital game.”

Max Drachman of Kalil & Co. helped facilitate the transaction.
