Survey: Clutter Causing TV Ads to Lack Effectiveness
Feb 8, 2010

DUH!!
 
What I don't understand is, why don't advertizers do what's sensible? It seems 
so obvious. When you sell ads, you stipulate that the price you will pay per 
unit time will depend on how long the damned ad breaks are. It shouldn't be so 
hard to figure out that an ad will go from virtually zero effectiveness to 
something useful, if it isn't drowned out by a zillion other ads in the same 
break.
 
Instead, they respond by cutting back on TV ads.
