ADVERTISING - and GM DOIT !!

General Motors owed a refund from the P-I
I hope you will offer General Motors at least a partial refund on its full-page ad touting the great fuel economy of hybrid buses since you used a banner headline on page one to report exactly the opposite (Monday)- John Whittaker - Vashon


GM should spend its ad budget elsewhere
I find it quite ironic that General Motors had a full-page advertisement in the Monday issue of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, the same issue that discussed the new hybrid bus fuel efficiency issues ("Hybrid buses' fuel economy promises don't materialize," front page, same day).

Poor planning or coincidence, it had this reader laughing at how the claims made in the ad were discredited by the article. Perhaps GM could put its advertising budget toward more useful things, such as developing a viable alternative fuel (biodiesel) that truly would help the environment. - Colin Walker - Renton
