Subject: BS: No Ads Till the Result!
I think there may well be a good song in this, but I decided that the BS tag was safer.... :-)

Setting the Scene...

Australian Election on Saturday - Channel 7 big "Election Night Special" - non-stop - Advertised with "No Ads Till the Result"....

I wondered how they would pay for this, then it dawned on me

Product Placement!

Good Evening Prime Minister - "Would you like a Coca-Cola? You know, Things Go Better with Coke!"

And you, Mr Rudd, Leader of the Labour Party,

"No Thanks, I'll have a Pepsi - Drink of The Young Generation!"



OK, Now I'll just sit in the corner and wait for the rest of the Mudcat Clowns....
