We don’t have it now. Ads are ads. A rose is a rose by any other name.
After every news broadcast on National Radio and often on Concert FM (correct names deliberately used) we have bloody virulent ads for upcoming programmes.
Commercial marketers will try to tell you that this is not real advertising because it is not commercial advertising paid for by outsiders. This, they claim, is only “In-House Promotion”, not real ads.

In this way they surreptitiously infect our public Radio with their poxy commercialism.

These purveyors of barbarism – who have put bloody ads between the movements of Beethoven’s 9th Symphony – are downright poisonous to culture and art. RNZ is already deeply infected by them. If you think RNZ is ad-free, you have failed to see the poison already there.
