Channel One is running a contest
to promote the Teen Choice Awards on the Fox Network. Channel One
is offering children various products as prizes. The companies
supplying the prizes are paying to have their products promoted
on the channelone.com site.
One advertiser Channel One has
signed up is Zroom Foods.
This company has to be one of
the most inappropriate advertisers ever on Channel One.
Go to their web site at vroomfoods and
try to imagine what sold Channel One on these products.
This marks the beginning of
yet another year of junk food advertising to children.
Below is the actual ad on Channel
One’s official web site for Vroom’s overpowering products. Companies
pay Channel One to have their web site address prominently displayed.
Many children will click over from Channel One to Vroom’s site
and a percentage of those children will ultimately end up buying
these drug-loaded "Buzz Bites." (Caffeine is a drug.)
Hey, parents, did you know
this is what Channel One is advertising to your child?
