!ear "ditor.

#e are writing to complain about ads on T$. There are so many ads

especially during our faorite programs. #e thin% they should be stopped for a

number of reasons.

&irst, ads are nuisance. They go on for a long time and there are so

many. 'ometimes there seems to be too many ads in one program.

'econd, ads are bad in(uence on people. They try to encourage people

to buy unhealthy food li%e beer, soft drin%, candy and chips. And they ma%e people

want things they do not really need cannot a)ord. *t can lead consumerism.

&innaly, the people who ma%e ads hae to much say in what programs

people watch. That is because they want to pull all their ads on popular programs

that a lot of people watch. 'ome programs that are not so popular get stopped

because they do not attract enough ads. "en though those programs may be

someone+s faorite.

&or those reasons, we thin% your T$ station should stop showing ads.

 They interrupt programs. They are a bad in(uence on people, and they are

sometimes put to stop to people+s faorite shows. #e are sic% of ads now we mostly

watch other channels.
