I wonder if creating a network and garaunteeing advertising on all the sites by giving a certain amount would work? I'm just trying to brainstorm and think about what would motivate companies to contribute to this.
This sounds like a good idea and I think it has a lot of potential!
I don't think that the idea is scaleable.

If it works it works because it gets into the news when it works, which is free publicity.

What I'm really trying to do is prove that this concept can work. If I can do it, why can't anybody else?
When you copy an approach 1 to 1 it isn't authentic anymore. A approach like your need that authenticity to succeed.

It like the million dollar homepage. It succeeded because it was authentic, and made news.
The web is about being authentic on the end of the long tail.

The more authentic you can get the higher your chances of success.

from your ebay auction:
I call myself a "scholarpreneur." What I'm selling here is an opportunity to sponsor my college education. This project is one of my unique plans for paying my way through college, because who wants to have $40,000+ in loans to pay off after they graduate? You do? Well I don't. You're crazy
-Don't be defensive in the way you write. Be offensive, dream and don't try to be realistic. Realistic is boring.

I think there are to much ads at your site at the moment. You don't have the traffic to make money on your ads at the moment anyway.

Talking about this in terms of “bad news” or “bad judgment by business leaders” seems archaic. It’s like describing World War One as “a serious diplomatic concern.”
