reply to reply on children's tv adverts

Miss Demeanor

I totally agree with a review on advertisements needing to be reviewed. It didn't even occur to me about the recent press coverage about healthy eating, but as soon as i read it, i became more infuriated about the whole subject!!

If it is unacceptable to advertise 'unhealthy' food to children, why is it not unacceptable to advertise toy after toy, manipulating their minds in exactly the same way??

I also agree that it is all about the money, after all money doesn't just equal power, it's the root of all evil!!

After realising what children are exposed to in adverts, it then got me thinking of adverts on a whole, and what they are actually conveying?! Just look at the 118 24 7 advert, currently dominating the tv and radio channels, one of the worst, most irritating, awful advert i have ever seen, yet will not leave my bloody head!! Something definatly needs to be done before more money crazed, power hungry, idiots create more money sucking adverts out of us!!!
