The deal will place ads from OMD USA clients such as Pepsi, Gillette and Apple Computer on the Super Bowl, Academy Awards and other shows to be broadcast on ABC next season. The deal also includes ads on NBA playoff games broadcast by ABC and ESPN and spots on Disney-owned cable channels and Internet sites as well as radio stations.
