...Archer-Daniels Midland slathers a lot of congressional pockets to keep tariffs high on cane sugar, though...

Over the years, they have also bought off the TV networks, running incessant ads on the Sunday morning news talk shows. General Electric has done the same.

I always wondered why they ran those ads. They’re not like Corn Flakes or the Shamwow. Nobody’s going to buy Archer-Daniels Midland products because of a commercial and they’re not a retailer. Your explanation makes a lot of sense. I’ve always suspected the same of Intel commercials in PC magazines. Not that many people even know what processor is in their computer, but it sure does make it more likely that the magazine will give your company good reviews.
