You are being insulted. Daily. Commercial TV and the advertising industry believe that by TURNING UP THE VOLUME during television advert breaks, they will make you spend money. I know you\'re not that stupid. You know you\'re not that stupid. Seems the only people who DON\'T know it are the TV companies. Now I could live with a TV company thinking I\'m stupid. What I can\'t tolerate is having to leap for the remote every ad-break, so I don\'t wake the kids or annoy the neighbours. Programme makers record at 80% of the maximum permitted level, so that their sponsors can make a bigger impact on your ears. Sign below if you want to be free to choose your own volume setting.
The TV networks think they can blast our ears and force us to pay attention to their garbage. I am hearing from so many of you who are sick of diving for the remote every time an ad break starts. These companies rely on our silence so keep pushing this into their faces until they stop the noise.
