I worked at a school that had “Channel One.” It was news for kids and had all kinds of commercials geared for student audience. This has been going on for MORE than a decade.

I don’t see why not…schools need more revenue than what they get from the government and kids see comercials all the time…

If Bobby has 5 Cokes and Suzy has 3 Cokes, how much more refreshed will Bobby be than Suzy?

Very funny. I envision schoolrooms with posters on the walls just as signs appear in baseball stadia.

Nothing’s changed, except the commercials are mostly pushing sex now.
