Fox News 100 Ads Eardley Factor Evaluation

Eardleyfactor Marketing Analysts processed and evaluated 100 TV Advertisements during the period 8:30 a.m. Sunday, November 28, to 12:15 p.m. on Sunday, December 5th.
In order to be objective, the analysts quite deliberately avoided researching the names of parent companies or the agencies involved in the production of the work.
Note: Evaluative scores were interpreted into their numerical Eardleyfactor from zero to ten. One would stress that the evaluation concerns itself with interpretation of the overall effectiveness of the 'ad'-not the product itself.
Interested parties are referred to the home page Introductory Statement in which explains that the judgments are based on a model derived from truths proven in excess of 25,000 clinical interactions over many years.
The following results are for information only-though as always, comments are welcomed as well as feedback from those with a high interest in the Eardleyfactor.
