| I posted this on another thread... but I thought it needed to be said. Please don't comment unless you disagree... I just wanted to say it and let it drop off the forum. Quote:
I've also heard that hollywierd has paid people in the past to mention stuff in blogs and sites like this as a way to get you to talk about their product for free... I expect it from Doc after all he's gotta keep the lights on... if he wanted he could contact ABC and see if they could float him cash or server space... But when someone poses as a fan and uses our enthusiasm to sell us some schlockey piece of unrelated cr*p..... everyone who called the 800 number called to listen to an ad... wanna bet the next episode... they'll have two ads instead of just Monster.com on the phone. "Press one to find out if Kate likes KFC." REVERSE TELEMARKETING you called them. Please don't help them do it to us.... if they are successful then they will be encouraged to do it more. Commercials used to be 4 times an hour... now they're 6. Breaks used to be 5 minutes long now they're 7 to 8.. And on some channels we have infomericals 24hrs a day. Please tell them enough is enough... TV/CATV/SAT will eventaully be commercials 23 hrs and actual entertainment 1 hour. | |
