Today Tonight Monday

Theres something about how mental all bikers are, will be worth a laugh

 

mental ????? they dont know the meaning of the word


riding down the f6 the wrong way at 200klm and playing chicken
with B doubles is just normal behaviour

but posting here asking for advice is mental behaviour

 

Wonder when the day will come when they are forced into providing REAL
stories with GENUINE UNEDITED/TWISTED facts....

 

You're confusing current affairs with the sale of prime time advertising.

Correct, I wasnt thinking straight.

 

It's been at least six months, we're about due one. I suppose that means
it's the unemployed's turn next month.

Have they done any recent stories on dodgy builders ripping off poor
pensioners? How about he fab new diet that's sweeping Australia? It's all
quality on that show.

 

But for some reason ... it keeps going, even though 85% of the country
knows its all shit

 

You were thinking gay?

about once or twice a year they get an interesting story about a one eyed pensioner ripping off builders
then speeding their 111km/h electric scooter the wrong way up a one way street on their way to their latest
fab diet meeting.

You never had an original thought in your life, nev

 

exactly, so why dont the shows get ripped off the air??

 

Quite simply because no-one actually makes their voice heard.

Watch the show.
Note all ads during the show.
Write (don't email) to every company advertised saying that because of
the show you and all your 'stupid' bikie/biker mates will boycott their
products becuae of the show.
Let the shows producer know as well!

That will give em a wake up call!

Writing to the advertisers will tell them one thing.

That the fact you took note of what company to write to means you have remmbered their name, and
therefore the ad worked. It's all about getting the name "out there".

As an example, Vulcan heating had an ad campaign where a guy (my father as a matter of fact) melted
into the floor, surrounded by a bubbling goo which was meant to be his melted body. It was aired
just before the evening weather report on channel 9.

Vulcan recieved a flood of letters saying it was disgusting, having somerthing like that on tv at a
time when people would be sitting down to dinner.

Vulcan considered that campaign to be one of their most successful, purely for the reason that the
complaining public knew which company to write to. The logic goes that in the future, when those
people go shopping for heaters, Vulcan will be one name they remember.

So go on. Write to the sponsors of Today Tonight. Have a whinge. They'll only see it as a sign that
sponsoring that show gets their product's name into people's minds very effectively.

So what do you suggest?

 

Just because I know what won't work, doesn't mean I know what will.

 

Wasnt havin a go at yer, was just askin, im sick of the shit on tele..
when mine blows up, I aint replacin it.

 

Actively discourage people from watching that crap. Viewers = ratings.
Ratings = they keep dishing out that crap.
