Why? Why?

A television commercial being aired recently by Altel (to sell their latest slim-phone or some such thing) treats us to a few brief glimpses of video we can download and watch on their cell-phones for "entertainment."

One of these glimpses is some unfortunate individual vomiting over a sink.

That's not exactly what I call entertainment. I had to watch it three times to be certain I wasn't imagining it.

Why on Earth (or any other planet) would Altel think something that revolting would help sell its product?
