Noisy TV commercials were banned in California on Monday, with a new law that demands pitchmen turn the volume down. "We heard Californians loud and clear, and what's clear is that they don't want commercials at a volume any louder than the level at which they were previously enjoying a program," Governor Gavin Newsom said after signing the bill into law.
