I've been stewing about this for a while, so I thought I might share. I don't remember the exact day it happened, but I think it was on the day of the AFL Grand Final.
Anyway, quite literally within 5 minutes of watching they cut to a presenter on a football field with kids kicking footballs in the background, wearing Brisbane Lion jerseys etc.
Turns out it's a paid promotion for Shell. After he talks a bit about the grand final, he introduces Shell as a sponsor. The show then cuts to a 2 minute promotional video for Shell fuel, saying how great oil is.
Once the promo ends, he encourages the kids by telling them that whoever kicks a goal gets a $1000 petrol voucher, as he waves a stack of these petrol vouchers in front of the camera.
I don't get easily offended, but I've honestly never seen anything more disgusting in my entire life.
