Epic fail

Yep, I work with a couple of the brands on that list, they tend to be risk averse, no chance would they have signed off on it...

So stupid of Sky not to warn clients / agencies. Having said that, any good TV department should have been all over it.

From what I can see, we have a half decent TV department and most / all clients were warned or the channel was removed from the buy.

Yep, fails from both agencies and Sky, I suspect the agencies buying line by line rather than bulk will have spotted the issue.
wonder how it works of adsmart, assume they must have the ability to blacklist channels, as I know at least one of those advertisers are heavy on adsmart and light on linear TV.

classic "the free market in action = censorship" from some thick as mince fash chud bootlicker action tho.

Yep, with this being the standard response.

Yeah - you buy audience but apply whitelist / blacklist on a channel or programme (genre or specific series) level.

As you say, it appears to be general packages sold client direct or through PR agencies who haven't got a fucking clue what they're doing, who are falling foul. At least it'll keep the same PR agencies busy for a while...

I'll look forward to seeing it appear in the spotlists of some of my DR clients in the next few months. Wonder how many decimal places I will have to add to the spot ratings to be able to see a number, can’t imagine it is delivering a lot of impacts.

Apparently it had a 1.1% total audience share on launch which is massive but I assume it was mostly curious people and it will decline significantly.

Yes, anecdotally, there were a lot of people watching to see if it was going to be a car crash, so I assume the rubber necking will die down, but then Fox news pulls in the ratings in the US...

Someone at the Telegraph has a sense of humour.

A California man who mocked Covid-19 vaccines on social media has died after a month-long battle with the virus.

"Got 99 problems but a vax ain't one," the 34-year-old tweeted to his 7,000 followers in June.

Despite his struggle with the virus, Mr Harmon still said he would reject being jabbed, saying his religious faith would protect him.

Oops

That just makes me feel sad, what a fucking clown...

I have seen similar done at host venues for sporting events here. Proper cringe.

Hahaha

That’s sad. What an idiot.

Visitors to Titanic museum injured by replica iceberg. Alternatively, an epic win if you're really into reliving the experience.
