The reason radio has survived all these years, despite the enormous appeal of television is because there is a need for the radio. Radio is mostly listened to in the car, where you don't need to focus on what is happening on the screen.

Because on radio, you can have the whole Royal Canadian Air Force tow a twenty-ton
cherry into position and then drop it into Lake Michigan which has been drained and
filled with Hot Chocolate for the occasion, to the amazement of the crowd of 30,000
cheering Americans lining the shore of the lake. But you can't do that on television.
Television takes you into a world that's as big as your TV screen. But radio takes you
into a world that's as big as your imagination, where you find everything that you ...
nobody else ... most love, hate, fear, and wish for.

Does brent spiner do the voiceover in the rhyming discover card commercial?
The rhymes of Discover Card commercials don't insult the intelligence of anyone? They are for children. Children don't have credit cards. Who are they aiming those childish commercial rhymes at? It tells me that Discover Card Corp. thinks their customers have the intelligence and maturity of children. I would never buy a credit card machine to process and accept Discover Cards in my office. It is bad enough that a local television producer admitted that he was prohibited from airing anything that was not understandable to a 14-year-old. Those commercials appeal to grade schoolers. They are sinking the already deplorable standard even lower. Get rid of those childish commercials, Discover! Credit your customers and audience as having adult intelligence and judgment. Very many television advertisements are on the same juvenile level. You are the worst.
