Often, a celebrity promotes a foundation and asks for support which should be given by the listeners or viewers. Some are public awareness campaigns, lobbying against smoking or compulsive gambling, for example. Other examples include:
Publicserviceannouncements run in the form of pre-recorded announcements, community calendar announcements, and live read scripts.
Announcements run at the bottom of each hours and are read during music programs at the station.
Pre-recorded publicserviceannouncements are recorded for events that collect an entrance fee for admission that will benefit a particular cause - a spaghetti dinner benefiting the Berkeley High School Varsity Basketball Team, an appearance by Danny Glover benefiting the NAACP of San Francisco.
"The Water Ballet," is a new publicserviceannouncement from the Federal Trade Commission on behalf of the Partnership for Healthy Weight Management.
And, with more than $30 billion being spent on weight loss products and services each year, consumers should know that there are strategies and tools available to help them become healthier.
Watch, listen or read to the 30-second PublicServiceAnnouncement for the Partnership for Healthy Weight Management.
