You never know. I found a Walmart ad on Alternet.org once and flagged it. They apologized. Of course the way ad filters work, it came up next to an article critical of Walmart.

Well, working in the advertising industry, I feel obligated to watch. My boss even ordered me to get a TV so that I would keep up with the appearance of current ads.

I can't remember the last time I watched the television...I've never seen American Idol...I am completely and totally out of touch with America.
