Too many ads

I would like to thank Indosiar for the live telecast of the
long-awaited Tyson-Holyfield fight. However, I would like to
mention that it was very disappointing in terms of the frequency
in which the advertisements were shown. Even interview with Tyson
after the end of the fight was abruptly cut.

I do agree that TV stations require sponsors to cover the
costs, but cutting (interrupting) replays and comments from
commentators (directly from Las Vegas) in between the rounds,
especially in a sport like boxing, is not digestible for sports-
loving fans.

I have decided never to buy Extra Joss, not to open any
account or deal with Bank Nisp, not to eat Kacang Garuda, Kopiko,
etc. I do not use sarung. Otherwise, I would have decided never
to purchase sarung made by Cap Mangga.

The advertisements could have been more effective by way of
moving text at the bottom of the screen. The sponsors could
mention that this uninterrupted live telecast has been sponsored
by so and so. I presume that my other sports-loving friends will
agree with me. Advertisers, please try to understand consumers.
