    Advertising is too powerful to allow for-profit pharmaceutical companies to influence the doctor patient relationship as it does with Direct to Consumer Advertising.

    Big Corporate News Media has sold us out. Add revenue insures news agencies silence across the entire spectrum of media broadcast. " VaxXed " movie release proved that they all work together to silence any opposition

    I agree and I don't buy the argument that drug companies do this to raise awareness about conditions, they do this to make more money. Drugs are not to be taken lightly. There's nothing wrong with researching what is out their on your own, but they should not be advertised to the general public like a piece of clothing.

    Direct advertising to consumers enables drug companies to "buy" favorable media coverage for their products. No media outlet wants to offend its major drug advertisers by publishing anything that conflicts with the advertisers' interests. This "buying" of media must stop!

    Drug commercials simply hinder the usefulness of medicine in general and drugs are not often the best solution when someone's dietary and activity aspects can be changed to effect real cures. Drug companies seem to be in bed with politicians who continue to allow this.

    Use the money that you spend for advertising on further research or research on new products.
