Apparently TV commercials are too damn loud. [netflix]
Though Congress still bickers over net neutrality, spying on Americans, and universal health care, at least Democrats and Republicans can agree on one thing: TV commercials are too damned loud. After approval by the House, the Commercial Advertisement Loudness Mitigation (CALM) Act is now on its way to President Obama’s desk. It was passed by the Senate earlier this year.
According to a staffer, it took longer to create the acronym than it did to write the legislation.
