    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.

    Woosh gum! Specially formulated to match the underside of a desk when you’re done chewing it.

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

    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.
