Fox publicist Gwyne Ortiz said Fox has asked 16 Springfields from Oregon to Massachusetts to participate.
Fox will pick the winner after reviewing short film entries showcasing the community's positive aspects and links to the Simpsons, who live in their own fictional Springfield.
from MSN article found here
Has anyone heard anything about this? Is our Springfield one of the 16 being considered? This is the first I've heard of such a competition. Over the years I've spoken with numerous locals who can get quite vocal about their belief that our Springfield is indeed the Springfield.
UPDATE: Apparently this topic has made its way onto the local radio airwaves. Thanks Blevins.

..."short film entries"...
Sounds like a job for Just Two Guys.
We need to check with the mayor's office. I want to know if 20th Century Fox has contacted them. If so, we need to be on this.
