Re: Comcast overwriting network ads?
said by pokesph  :So why is Comcast overlaying their own ads over the various cable network's ads? This, locally anyway, is becoming very annoying. Anyone else (especially network advertisers) also a bit mad about this practice? I know that if I paid good money on a national network for ad space and it was stepped on by the local cable co, I would be pissed as hell and looking for my money back. Your thoughts, comments? You have no idea how ad insertion works. No one is getting screwed.

In fact, I know 'HOW' it works.. it's just I don't like it nor do I think it's right. Really tho, most of the time its some dumb comcast ad.. like we don't already have comcast, so like why are they wasting time/energy preaching to the quire. |

| CableTool is correct that don't know, as indicated by your messages that implied that Comcast was doing something wrong, and that the national advertisers were getting something less than what they were promised, two things that were patently untrue. |
