Damn! Even the Food Network isn't safe from MF45

[FoxNewsSucks]

I have always liked Sat & Sun mornings, because that's when the Food Network runs the 'how-to' type shows. So it's on while I do things around the house. Its also a break from having news channels on in the background.

Today, I have lost track of how many times I've seen that fucking "the economy's coming back thankyoutrump!!!!" ad. MF45 already taking credit for the "roaring back" economy that's the "envy of the world". The job info just came out yesterday, and they're already exploiting it.

How many people who don't know better will see this shit all over TV, and believe it??

I know there are great Lincoln Project ads, I see them here. But they don't need to convince me. Those ads need to be on TV to counter the rightwing bullshit. On all the channels, not just be discussed by the shows on CNN or MSNBC.

1. Damn

This i just a bad as those Trumpy bears they are selling.

2. Women voters are always the key target

Not that the Food Network is just watched by females but it surely is a large part of their audience

3. It's all about money...

I don't find Food Network much more than just chefs or want to be chefs playing with food....I use to love Food Network when Chefs dominated as teaching food preparation technique...

8. That's why I still have it on

weekend mornings. They did kinda go the way of MTV with all the game show formats. Some are good, but I learn a lot more watching the instructional type shows.

It was best in the late 90's early 2000's, when the lineup had Emeril (who is a great teacher), Mario Batali, Two Hot Tamales and others.

13. Ohhhh

Do you remember the "Two Fat Ladies"?... Wonderful gals...

[FM123]

4. Yes!

I was just watching a cooking segment on delicious queso dip for a grad party and boom - that stupid trumpy commercial - ruined my appetite...

6. DVR is a wonderful thing

I DVR EVERYTHING! Even news I am 10-15 minutes behind just to FF commercials. If I catch up I watch something else I DVR’ed until I can go back. It’s the greatest thing. I watch The Pioneer Woman and The Kitchen on food network. Best thing is I get to watch it in 20 minutes saving me at least ten minutes per show. Even Rachel I FF through commercials.

10. That's why this is so damn annoying,

Weekend mornings are pretty much the only time I watch live tv. Any other show I watch is DVR

[jimfields33]

14. I totally get that. I wish there was another way for networks to make money

Then commercials.

5. Haven't seen the ad yet thank god

I don’t watch tv but spend a lot of time on the internet and often get pop ups for degenerate Donny. I close ASAP but am over exposed already.

7. Your point about the Lincoln Project ads is spot on.

They are profoundly effective but if they are not getting beyond Twitter and like social media platforms and MSNBC they are all but useless exercises in self-indulgence.

We need that kind of ad content (Lincoln Project/the Bloomberg ads) but sprayed the way Bloomberg placed his ads, on often-accessed television channels, plunked down in the middle of major televised events and so forth. This is so basic it shouldn't have to be stated.

[FoxNewsSucks]

11. Yeah,

I'd be a little less annoyed if MF45's liefest were followed by a Lincoln Project ad, or one of the ads Bloomberg used to do. If that crap is all people see, the ones who aren't paying attention will have their minds made up by fall, and it won't be in our favor.

9. His ads are all over YouTube. nt

12. My hubby watches FETV reruns most nights

Old shows definitely geared towards seniors.

There’s an ad they show frequently for a company that sells face masks and hand sanitizers that always prefaces their ad with a picture of a bunch of American flags waving in the breeze and the annoying voiceover stating,”America’s economy is coming back like never before!” Then they proceed to try and sell you products to keep you safe during a pandemic. I think the irony is probably lost on most....
