Geoffrey 869 Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Maybe I've missed it but I haven't seen the "It's Like Bacon" CBS 2 News This Morning promo lately... Has it been pulled from the rotation already? What's going on there? Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/5927-wheres-the-bacon/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Lampstein 115 Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 If it was pulled, that sucks. It was my favorite one. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/5927-wheres-the-bacon/#findComment-55356 Share on other sites More sharing options...

jestbiteme 13 Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Mm mm, terrible marketing! I would expect that kind of thing from a smaller market, but NYC? I'm throwing my Dish away in protest.

jestbiteme 13 Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 You dont have a Dish! I know! That is how disappointed I am. I'm going to buy a system, get the Distant Networks package, sign the contract and then turn around and cancel; finally throwing the dish away.

That and the promo sucked and never should have aired in the first place.
