Non-Comm's are forbidden from having commercials...that's why they
have
underwriter announcements.

And reality is that there is no difference.

Check with a lawyer....there is.


Sorry bud, a private corporation pays and gets mentioned as supporting
the program. You think that's done for altruistic reasons? If it was
their name and what they do or manufacture would not be mentioned. They
want to be thought well of so you will buy the product or service. This
is very transparent and if you don't see it I don't hold much hope for
you. I don't care about the legalese.


Non coms can have "commercials" but there are restrictions on them, such as
no "call for action" and no price-item type ads. However, a commercial can
describe the merits of a business or product. An example would be Mercedes
can describe the design and careful attention to detail and safety and the
power of its engines, but not the $399 a month lease terms for well
qualified customers. It's an ad, but with restrictions.... very significant
restrictions.

As was said, check with a lawyer... any communications attorney can tell you
the differences between ads on a commercial and non commercial station.


They can tell a real Hispanic from a faux Hispanic such as yourself as well.
