Message | Do you have any sort of understanding when it comes to ALL advertising permitted? So that means subliminal messaging, obviously undecent, vulgar, and other types of advertising is permitted. Well pray to your god to change you and hopefully for your New Year's Eve Resolution your party can think. |

Message | Subliminal advertising has been proven to be ineffective quite a while ago. And all nudity and sexual activity is banned from television so it is not permitted. |
