Gawker Uses Google Ads to Run Small Scale Ad Campaign

A video explaining how this magazine put an ad up on early morning television (off-peak-hours) on certain cable news channels using Google TV/Video ads. It’s a pretty cool video to watch:

Buying an Ad on Fox News is Easier Than You Think

And cheaper, too. Say you have some life-altering product that needs advertising to get off the ground, using Google TV Ads, you can buy TV ad space whenever/wherever you want. Slate tested it out, and the results were surprising.

In the end, they did mention that they ended up paying $1700.00 on the experiment, but that did include a couple million 4:00am Fox News viewers. That should be good for something.
