DATE:

November 2005

60-second radio PSA

OPENING:

[sound effects - office noise in background]

BOSS_1:

OK that about wraps up this meeting on the new ad campaign for Fuddenweiser Beer... this is a great beer commercial... any final thoughts... Larry?

LARRY:

Boss... our ads show young, beautiful, people - playing sports - frolicking on the beach - making it with the ladies...

BOSS_1:

What's your point?

LARRY:

I was thinking, Perhaps we should put some type of warning in the ad... like, something about the 14 million people addicted to alcohol.

SOUND_EFFECTS:

[Clamoring voices of disapproval and shock]

BOSS_2:

What!!! Are you out of your mind... people might drink less!

LARRY:

But boss, this is a problem we can't ignore - no one intends to become addicted to alcohol - we should warn them that most people don't realize they have a problem... until it's too late.

BOSS_3:

Listen... have you ever seen a beer commercial that used the word addiction? Hello... we're in the alcohol business... not the TRUTH business.

NARRATOR_1:

Falls, suicide, crime, violence, depression, family problems, pregnancy, STDs, fetal alcohol syndrome, date rape, alcohol poisoning

NARRATOR_2:

and addiction...

NARRATOR_3:

... these are some of the things the alcohol industry won't warn you about... so we thought we would.
