Schools help promote Nickelodeon’s How To Rock TV show

January 27, 2012

Above is a screen shot of today’s Channelone.com. A commercial that was shown on the in-school Channel One News is playing advertising a new Nickelodeon TV series called How To Rock. To the right and throughout the hyper-commercial website is an ad for the show.

Teachers and principals are allowing this complete waste of time to happen on taxpayer-funded school time.  Nickelodeon and other TV networks and movie studios love students who are forced to watch Channel One “News.” Being able to pound commercials into the heads of a captive audience of schoolchildren is unbelievably profitable for advertisers.
