So, I was watching TV recently, and being bombared with Direct to Consumer advertising is nothing new. They have Rafael Palmero pushing Viagra, the NFL is touting Levitra and now Cialis is all over the NCAA! Funny how they market depending on demographics. So, since reality TV is all the rage now, it’s only natural to see ads advertised on shows such as Blind Date which puts perfect strangers into very questionable moral situations. So, for what products would you expect to see commercials for? It’s only fitting that Valtrex for the treatment of recurrent genital herpes is being marketed to Blind Date viewers!! Seems pretty damn funny to the Fool! =) Hmmm… what ads will they promote during The Apprentice? Wonder what the Donald would approve of?
