No. Never heard of any public media being responsible for the ads. Personally, I don't think I've used any company because of its ads in at least 30 years. For services, it is personal recommendations only. For unknown products, I check them out with Consumer Reports, Good Housekeeping or a professional in that field whom I know and trust (which leaves out Oprah and Dr. Oz).

So, why would you think the Sun should check out the ratings of an advertiser?
