I am an 80-year-old senior who neither listens to, or watches, the average number of hours attributed to my age group by far. The reason both media “turn me off” is because of the advertising code — or lack thereof. In my area there is a man with squeaky voice who does a lot of hyper radio commercials. The frequency with which his commercials causes me to leave an otherwise interesting and informative program. As for television the same beef applies — advertising. Especially the frequency of which a same advertisement appears in over an hour. Again causing me to shut the TV off. Paying for this service, to me, is not worth the money, and I wonder why I do it. The solution on my part is soon to be taken.

No kidding! How many times do you need to watch ad-nausea an endless loop of ads flogging horrible products like baby life insurance and reverse mortgages on a news program? I became a cable cutter years ago. Now I watch NetFlix, no ads, and no interruptions.
