Yeah, someone who has noticed a trend. Nothing more.
And I agree with you.

I've personally been given a month off from this forum for saying exactly the same thing in the past so at least one thing is certain. Even the mods here are finding it hard to defend the airbrushing of the white male from the commercial media.
These guys provide a sideways view and some interesting, though not wholly surprising statistics...

The channel 4 being absolute channel 4 climate change (stty oil pants) one just illustrates the acceptable mentality these days - the shock and horror is acceptable because climate change is EXTERMINATING US. WE’RE ALL DOOMED ITS A fkING EMERGENCY, PEOPLE!

Anything goes.

Outrageous

On the plus side I know I need to avoid upcoming programmes on ch4; probably come out in the Christmas holidays.

Upon seeing the Channel 4 "climate crisis" advert for the first time, my first thought was how that passed the standards test.

I love that advert!

"I can see his plum crack" caught me off guard and had me giggling like a child for a good few minutes.

The cringe fest that was the Sky Sports presenters doing a people’s postcode lottery advert during the football yesterday. I couldn’t quite believe what I was watching. punch

It turns out it's Ofcom who monitor that not the ASA .
That's my interpretation of the procedure anyway. I have complained to them

I've not seen it, but I would imagine it's not an advert for a product? More a virtuous idealogical political narrative? (But then that's most adverts anyway).

Yep, it's not an advert, it's advertising a programme they've got coming up. It's absolutely terrible and shouldn't be on the TV. Complaint made.

Currently on the radio they're still getting their moneys worth out of the creepy Albert Einstein ones.
Also one for BP (I think) charging where the brats are singing '10 green bottles' and the wife asks 'grumpbuckets' why he's not joining in ? He gives some spiel about being worried about the next charging point but I'm guessing its more likely he's wondering how the fk his life has ended up like this and how the fk he can get out of it.

Screens alongside an escalator on the Underground this morning (Bond Street) & more idiotic dancing to promote a money transfer service.

This ^^^^.

Sorry to use a real old man word but it is utterly disgraceful, especially as they seem to be showing it at any time they fancy including when I am eating my dinner.

But environment, mkah?
