Dear Television Advertisers,

I do not get to see your advertisements… therefore, I probably haven’t bought your revolutionary new product.
“Why is that?” I hear you asking…
Well, when I hear the words “Britney” or “Paris” or “new reality show” – I simply pick up the remote and turn off my TV for the rest of the day.

I am part of a growing movement of concerned citizens that has begun to fight back against ignorance and uselessness in American media…
In fact, I know a couple who just chucked their entire entertainment system… it went into the garbage.

There are more of us every day.
If you want to reach us as consumers you must do the following:

1. Create products that benefit us.
2. Make your products in the USA to provide jobs.
3. Demand advertising spots in valuable, intelligent programs that benefit society.

Thank You.

Answerers – would you like to say something to the media and it’s advertisers as well?


I’m running for public relations officer of my high school’s American Red Cross Club, and I don’t know how to write a quick speech that won’t sound too sophisticated or condescending or chintzy in a casual setting. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! :)

I am working on my BS in Computer Science, but am hardly the Republican that most engineers tend to be, and don’t really like the stuffy, ultra-conservative office culture. I can’t stand business a$$holes. I will graduate in two years, and am having nightmares (figuratively speaking) about spending the rest of my life working for some overbearing, bible-thumping manager. I know Google has a reputation of being liberal, but I watched their PR video online, and it was embarassingly repulsive and disgustingly sneaky, as is the case with most PR. I get the impression that working there would be no better than working at Microsoft. Right now the best job I can think of for a freethinker like myself would be some independent thing, but I am in no position to embark on someting as unstable as that. Any ideas? Advice from professional programmers would be greatly appreciated.
