Hoover pulling ads from ABC over soap operas
NEW YORK -(AP)- A Hoover executive who says his wife and mother are big fans of two soap operas cancelled by ABC says he is yanking the vacuum-makers' ads from the network in protest.
Hoover's vice president of marketing, Brian Kirkendall, announced on the company's Facebook page that the ads will be lifted Friday, if not sooner.
ABC said last week it was cancelling All My Children and One Life to Live, leaving General Hospital as its only soap. ABC had no comment Tuesday on Hoover's action.
