John they get away with stuff because we let them... consumers have the power of choice sadly some simply take it.. and so the problem becomes worse. Ads are necessary no question but empires now exist built on stupidy of consumer apathy.. I make the choice every time I make a purchase..not that what I buy drives the economy but I feel a little better when I constantly exercise choice based on actually thinking prior to buying the crap we are fed. No one else has to follow my lead my point is simply I wont accept that I can be simply conned.
I found myself once saying at the end of a commercial for a country and western singer ..this guy is great... only to realise I had never actually heard him sing anything.. it can be that way.. but never again.
