i38.tinypic.com This is a screen capture of advertising currently running on YouTube for a children’s-favorited series on YouTube called FRED. He is well known to be a highly-subscribed children’s video – his Elmo-pitched voice and silly antics are geared directly at children and young kids in the tween market – and YouTube is advertising HARD LIQUOR along side and on top of the video. THIS MUST STOP!!!!!!!! There is a limit to what YouTube should do when advertising infringes on the children’s programming – and this is WAYYYYY over the limit. Selling ABSOLUT vodka to children is OUT OF BOUNDS!!!!!!! YOUTUBE STOP THIS MADNESS – NOW!!!!!!!! Please forward this to as many parents and teachers as you know as this outrage must be stopped immediately. YouTube is irresponsibly selling liquor to children and has done nothing about it. We returned to the site at least two dozen times and the advertising was not a ‘fluke’ or one time deal. It appeared and re-appeared consistently. PARENTS SHOULD BE OUTRAGED!!!!!!!!!!!

This is my entry into the “Students With A Cause PSA Contest”. Enjoy!
