Eleanor Margesson breaches social etiquette by suggesting that we should front up to the makers of adverts and programmes that frustrate Christians.
Is there anything in the media that makes you really angry? Have you seen a film recently, or perhaps an advert or even a newspaper article that set your teeth on edge? If so, what have you done about it? Did you complain? If so, who to?
A report released by the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) at the end of April stated that the numbers of complaints submitted by the general public about non-broadcast advertising fell by 11% during 2004. Considering that the ASA proudly claims on its website that ‘it only takes one complaint to launch an investigation’ it is amazing that there is an average of only 200 complaints for the most high profile cases.
