Block that metaphor!

[Laurence Horn]

(as the New Yorker blurbs put it)

Just now on NBC's Nightly News, a report on the Olympics-based ad
campaigns mentioned both commercial products and the two presidential
campaigns all seeking to appeal to the 30 million or so nightly
viewers, then concluding:

"That's a lot of eyeballs they won't have another bite at."

Yum yum!
