Despite what you think of this — and where this particular snafu ends up (actually it was resolved at the last minute with final terms not disclosed) — Viacom makes a strong case: Viacom says it controls about 20% of the viewing on cable operators such as Time Warner but Time Warner only pays what Viacom says amounts to 2% of what it charges its customers on a monthly basis. If cable operators want advertisers to pay for specific viewing performance why shouldn’t they do the same with their program providers? Going against Viacom? According to a Time Warner spokesman Viacom won’t let Time Warner share in its advertising take limiting the time the cable operator can sell on its popular shows.

Doctors and Drug-Company Freebies
New York Times United States
The role of drug company representative was both education and promotion. They also provided samples of their medicines that doctors could give to patients to try out before filling a new prescription. The only advertising was in medical journals and at educational meetings; there was no advertising to the public. The main reward for doctors was that the drug industry often paid for educational conferences. Sometimes these conferences were accompanied by a sports event or a show and they were always accompanied by drug detailers pushing their products. I would welcome the return to the days when there was no advertising to the public very few goodies and an emphasis on education.

but we really hate the beaver ADVERTISEMENTS about a beaver pizza and male impotence have topped the list of the commercials we hate. A list released by the Advertising Standards Bureau found the hotly debated Kotex U tampon ad showing a woman going about daily activities with a beaver in tow was the most complained about ad in 2008. The ad which received more than 185 complaints tells its audience "You only have one of them so look after it" and featured the animal which viewers understood to be a reference to female genitalia. A Domino’s pizza ad in which a character named Many Toppins uses the made-up term "Supercalafreakinawesome" was the second most complained-about ad for the year. "While ‘freakin’ is not particularly terrible on the ad it sounds more like ‘friggin’ and was repeated as such by my four-year old" one of the 145 people who complained said. The controversial Advanced Medical Institute billboard ad also prompted more than 110 offended people to complain to the ASB making it the third most objected to.
