To the editor:
Am I the only one to notice that since the buyout by Journal Broadcasting of the NBC affiliate, that the remarkable amount of redundant and repetitive commercials is in itself repetitive and redundant ? Can’t we all make a Butch’s pizza from memory? How many lawyers do we need?
In other markets, Me- TV is not polluted with endless local commercials just to make a buck. The ridiculous amount of commercials on satellite caused cancellation by us years ago, but now must we be bombarded by this crass commercialism just so Journal can get a return on its dollar?
Just watch as many one-hour shows are stretched into one and one-half hours and butchered to fit in more commercials or shortened to fit. But as usual, we are the ones to sit and take it from the “haves” to the “have nots.” Commercials are a part of life, but sometimes enough is enough!
