What a rip! At least that&#8217;s what competitor Dish Network is saying in a new spot that launched last night during the Grammy Awards on CBS. It&#8217;s a super-stripped-down, non-Hollywood commercial with one thing on its mind: linking a higher DirecTV bill with the marketer&#8217;s well-known star-powered advertising. Is that even true? Run the numbers out there and report back, please, but I bet DirecTV is already working on that. Could it be the beginning of back-and-forth attack ads? Nobody ever gets tired of those.
