Everybody should be sick of Sarah. This is one of the bands that use class time to promote their music. What a sick joke on students and parents. This is the ugly reality of Alloy/Channel One News.
Alloy/Channel One News is now advertising musical artists throughout each daily TV program. This is a risky move since it obviously makes the program even more inappropriate for the classroom environment.
If a record company pays Alloy/Channel One enough money, then music from their new artists can be heard in American classrooms. It seems simple. Alloy/Channel One is desperate for cash and record companies will pay big bucks for a captive audience. Students can mellow out as they listen to rock and rap music instead of studying. Everybody wins… except for the students who are losing valuable school time to Alloy/Channel One’s marketing nonsense.
Here’s a commercial from October 2009. This was shown during school time. Alloy/Channel One News blacked this commercial out from the rebroadcast of their show, but we got it from another source. The company didn’t want parents to see this and we can understand why. This has no place in a classroom. Why should one second of school time, paid for by taxpayers, go to advance the sales of these music acts?
If you are a parent, call your school and demand that Channel One News be discontinued immediately.
