On Television

Good points, but does anyone really rely on Ellen Degeneres for financial advice?

American Express ads are particularly annoying for me. I can understand when an underworked has-been celebrity peddles something (ala Kristie Alley and Pier One), but when I see Ellen Degeneres (who has a show now), Robert DeNero (doubtful he’s hurting) and Jerry Seinfeld pushing a credit card so more can spend what they don’t have, it makes one wonder if there is any line some “entertainers” won’t cross for more money.
