Kyushu Electric Power has suspended advertisements on programs produced by Fuji TV following allegations of misconduct involving a Fuji TV employee and a celebrity. This is the first known case of a Kyushu-based major corporation halting ads in response to such a controversy. The company stated that it replaced scheduled ad slots with public service announcements and will refrain from entering new contracts with Fuji TV-produced shows for the time being. However, Kyushu Electric will continue to advertise on locally produced programs in the region. Source: NHK
