My last job had a massive wall of screens. And it was explicitly to impress government officials.
It had a news live stream playing (cycling between CNN, MSNBC, and ABC News), the weather, live camera feeds of both our on site and offsite DR data center, as well as live feed of our store room and basement (where all the cooling and power was routed). The screens also displayed all of our dashboards like nagios, Citrix, and Oracle. There was one that gave alerts if a system was down.
And this was all displayed on an array of 3 rows and 4 columns of 55 inch TVs using a chrome extension called “Revolver” to cycle through.
We actually only used like 3 of the total 20 rotating screens and it was way more efficient to have them running on my own 55" TV as a monitor just using power toys to give it a dedicated corner and then the rest could do emails and news.

Gov workers need this to know wether they still have a job or not
“Bob we just got laid off again”
“Ugh well early lunch break it is”
*during lunch* “Hey look I think we’re employed again for the afternoon”
