I keep hearing WaMu commercials on WLS, WGN, and WSCR.  I thought that 
bank went kaput or bought up recently.  Why would these commercials run 
if the company no longer exists?  I also heard one from Wauchavia (sp?).  
Is it possible that they already bought the air time awhile ago and 
can't get a refund from the stations?  

The WaMu one is kind of ridiculous because it's read live by whoever is 
the host and they make them say woo hoo at the end.  Not every host is 
as enthusiastic about saying woo hoo as others.
