There’s two ads I’ve been looking for for YEARS now, both were kinda unsettling to me as a kid for some reason:
The first one I saw on TeenNick (some time around 2012-2015 probably?) and it had the CEO of what I believe was a food company sitting at a desk in a well-lit room and he was apologizing for putting some sort of substance in his company’s products and claimed that the products will be pulled off of shelves and recalled immediately. I only saw it once but it stuck with me for some reason, and I’ve been looking for years and I’ve never been able to find it anywhere. If this sounds at least vaguely familiar please tell me so I know I’m not crazy lmao
The second one I saw was an ad I saw everywhere as a kid, but I mainly remember it coming on the most when I was watching Nick at Nite. This was a PSA talking about pertussis in babies. This was local ad done through the state of West Virginia that was very widely broadcasted for a while, I’d say I may have saw it at some point within 2008 to 2013 or so. There was a similar ad about pertussis that was widely broadcasted nationally, which featured a woman holding a baby, and that ad featured recordings of a baby coughing. The ad I’m thinking of and that ad are not the same, however they do feature the same recordings of the baby coughing. One thing about the ad I’m thinking of is that I believe there was a border around the ad that said something along the lines of “WVU Medicine” or “West Virginia University Health System” on it. If anyone else is from West Virginia and would wanna help me find this please do
UPDATE: the first ad has been found! however, the second one is still missing.
