sad as it is, the fact is that a network showing these would loose a lot of audience to other networks.
It’s not just about what the networks decide to give air time to, nowadays everyone has plenty of choice as to what information they want to digest.
Including the freakin’ hyperlink to the source’s website might have been a nice thing to do. http://beawitness.org/splash/
I’m touched by your dedication to the number of ads served.
Tom, at the time I did not find any links. As for the number of ads served, you should know for yourself that advertising blogs do not make money from ads. But if they do, at least they can promote ad creations. This is an personal blog, not an official creative firm blog.
I do use to include links to the source, but this one did not have any found by me at the time.
Thanks for stopping by bouth.
Too bad they can’t make an ad for the genocide going on in Iraq.
Not taking sides or anything, but just noting that the link to the website IS prominently featured at the end of the video clip.

Sorry.
