Nice idea, I'm planning on using my fu money to run TV adverts countering the non-sense claims made by other 'hydro-nano-bollocks' pushing adverts.

You won't be able to buy the time to run those adverts, unfortunately.

Kalle Lasn[1] of Adbusters fame has been trying to do it for years, and the networks just say "We won't run adverts contrary to our big sponsors". Yes, even PBS and the CBC say this.
