What's up with all the HIV drug commercials on Peacock?

I'm curious if yall get them too? Is HIV an epidemic in moto? Is it tied to regional demographics? Are we going to see factory teams running Truvada graphics?

Maybe they think you can relate. Many of my commercials are in Spanish. I guess they figure if my last name ends in Z that I can relate.

My parents in Florida get geriatric commercials for life insurance and bahama cruises. 

AZ is woke now that we've reached a saturation point of Cali transplants. 

Maybe it's because I watched a YouTube video on packing exhaust. 

These commercials portraying a fringe lifestyle as being normal have no buisiness being on TV programming that my kids are watching.

We shouldn’t be advertising any pharmaceuticals period. The fact that it’s a medicine that LGBTQ+ people use doesn’t make it any worse than any other ad.

I didn’t see any HIV commercials.  But we don’t have as many rump ranger butt pirates here in Texas as some of the other states!!

Me too, local Real Estate agent. Spanish? No body in my house speaks Spanish.

Promoting their white trash television shows,  and big pharma ads during motocross and tour de France coverage.

🤔

Only thing worse is the superimposed name graphics and pointers covering up the riders while they're racing.

I had a victoria secret commercial followed by a subway commercial, and then one for a home pregnancy test... lesson here is:  Dont stream Peacock on the same device you stream your porn on, it knows what you are into!!

I think they are like other adds online. What you look at and or talk about dictates what the adds are. I get different adds on the TV my mother watches the races on in the same house .

I’d rather watch the “Program will resume shortly” screen since I’m paying for the no ads version of Peacock. I got ads in Spanish and the pharma ones too. Last week I was in East TX and got some ads for a golf cart place in Tyler.

Same here. I used to get that little jingle plus that message instead of commercials. 
 

Oh well, at least I’m able to watch every race live. They’ve also done a better job having the replays available sooner than they used to.

Moto on Peacock is cheap airspace - bottom barrel media buys. It’s also extremely easy/cheap to advertise on connected tv nowadays so you don’t have the best or most experienced advertisers managing the placements.

It means that they haven't been able to sell any moto specific ads to support the broadcast. 

Those "national run" spots are usually kinda freebies to the advertiser when they are dropped into programming like this.  Speaks more to the lack of focus by Peacock and the fringe economy that moto has always survived on...

Kind of like how every single commercial during Covid was about Covid or being gay. The government (tax payer) is their most profitable customer.

Big pharma spends more on marketing than R&D, and is the majority advertizer on many networks,.including the news networks that run stories marketing pharmaceuticals and will never look into their side effects.
