Yes... management seems honest and ethical... they basically have said that they have hired an advisory firm (actually 2 of them) to try to find money. Logical is that this is exactly what is happening. Illogical is to believe there is some white knight sitting at the ready to save Mannkind that for some incredibly odd reason have let Mannkind flounder to this point without being able to fully staff national sales team or pay for full on TV advertising.
I fully support what Mattocks and Damon are doing because they are not wanting to pollute every household TV screen, they are staying closer to the people on a smaller, more personal scale and effort. Their intentions are good, and you can see this and feel this.
Pharmaceutical commercials, IMO, shouldn't be something that runs parallel with alcohol commercials, junk food commercials, propaganda, etc...the entire point of a commercial that is the subject of a consumable product, has the sole purpose of convicting the audience to accept the existence of said product, not be left with negative afterthoughts of the product, and plant a seed that grows into accepting the product and as truth and something that is "good" or "healthy" or whatever. I don't watch TV, haven't for many years and most folks I know don't either, we just use KODI and/or Netflix.
I support the way MannKind created their commercial and I support the show it sponsors that they run it on. I've talked with Mike and Charles several times and if I saw something advertised by either I could easily pick up on the intentions and genuineness only because they want to connect with everyday people and have stayed true to themselves.
MannKind's commercial is the exact opposite of what one thinks of when visualizing all of what they know of Pharma commercials to be and the purpose of them.
I honestly just don't think Corporations in which develop and sell things that impact health should be creating deception and buying out medical communities.
Most truly reliable, safe, remarkable and useful products and consumables don't need to pollute TV screens and YouTube videos in order to gain awareness, false acceptable and false perceptions.
William McCullough never is a TV commercial for Samson Hair Restoration and it is because he knew that what the clinical practices represented, the ethics they all honored and valued, and staying true and real would mean success through word of mouth and not a false advertisement of something that puts naive people at risk in an already bought off establishment.
MannKind naturally attracted wealthy celebrities who woken up a long time ago and they chose MannKind and Afrezza out of anything else in the world. The insulin speaks for itself. Very few medicines gain this kind of support. TPTB are all clearly against this impending doom, but when people put 1+1 together and see for themselves they also become aware of all these things.
There is an enormous phase change occurring and it just becomes more and more pronounced every day.
MannKind is what and who it is because of what they have done and who they have been. I don't want that to ever change. The day MannKind mirrors Big Pharma will be the day no good leaders are left and not enough truly good inspiration will exist to manifest itself.
Afrezza awareness grows daily without TV I think and because I can see it I don't think commercials are an issue. It is the paid shills and corrupt lobbying and BP pollution that are the issues.
Deerfield had/has a major flaw in their flow for executives to have taken adavance of people's health and finances for their own personal greed.
