Adbusters Jams CNN - TV Turnoff 2007

The idea is simple: take your TV, your DVD player, your video iPod, your XBOX 360, your laptop, your PSP, and say goodbye to them all for seven days. Simple, but not at all easy. Like millions of others before you, you'll be shocked at just how difficult -- yet also how life-changing -- a week spent unplugged can really be.

Beck is a worthless pile of puke. CNN and probably tons of other associated channels are setting up fake accounts to post positive comments on their videos. And making sure only theirs get posted. Blatant filtering and censorship. Some of the comments even repeat word for word. The corporate pigs are trying to take over YouTube. People aren't that stupid.

Well, it IS called "sublimnal" for a reason.

But I see your point.

I saw it, too.

One of the reasons that can happen is because, in different countries, no matter where the station is based, different commercials will sometimes be played. For example, here in Canada, it isn't uncommon to see Canadian commercials for products and services on certain American channels.

that was because they jammed cnn... the lincoln commercial was scheduled to air but the adbuster's ad was played overtop of it... not subliminal, the uncommercial just wasn't long enough

umm, WHY WAS THERE A SUBLIMINAL AD FOR LINCOLN AUTOMOTIVE AT THE END OF THE ADBUSTERS COMMERCIAL!?

i don't watch tv. maybe that's why i noticed. those of you who didn't notice must be swallowing thousands of these ads every month. kill your tv.

anyone notice the adbusters time slot came after a DOW commerical? DOW is a horrific company that refuses to compansate for the leaking of toxic gases that killed thosands. yet their commerical is sweeter than honey.

men for real if you really open your mind you'll find how disgusting it is 80% of the things they try to give us on tv and do this looking for an answer just do it
