Geoffrey 960 Posted October 22, 2009 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?
Dave Lampstein 299 Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 If it was pulled, that sucks. It was my favorite one.
IceManNYR 249 Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 WNBC still has a bacon reference in their Today In New York Diner promo.
WCAUTVNBC10 419 Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 They must have had to cut the pork in the budget.
Geoffrey 960 Posted October 22, 2009 Author Posted October 22, 2009 Turns out outraged fans held a huge protest outside of the CBS Broadcast Center over the promo being pulled. John Slattery reports: http://newsbyte2.blogspot.com/2009/10/wheres-bacon.html
jestbiteme 13 Posted October 23, 2009 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.
first on fox 18 Posted October 23, 2009 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. You dont have a Dish! But your Chris Wragge pin-up poster could work!
jestbiteme 13 Posted October 23, 2009 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.
Bucc 4 Posted October 23, 2009 Posted October 23, 2009 wait was that a real news story, actually on the news?
NYNews 55 Posted October 23, 2009 Posted October 23, 2009 That was a good sport of John to do the mock story. Geoffrey are you back interning at WCBS?
wabceyewitness 855 Posted October 23, 2009 Posted October 23, 2009 LOL... cute.. but, seriously, what did happen to the bacon promo? Swine flu fears? ;-)
Vlad 407 Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 LOL... cute.. but, seriously, what did happen to the bacon promo? Swine flu fears? ;-) Well, in a city culturally diverse as New York, we all know that there are certain religious cultures that do not consume pork...
DMA 136 Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 Well, in a city culturally diverse as New York, we all know that there are certain religious cultures that do not consume pork...
ProButtonPusher 230 Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 Well, in a city culturally diverse as New York, we all know that there are certain religious cultures that do not consume pork... That and the promo sucked and never should have aired in the first place.
