Blatant Bing Product Placement Continues
The blatant product placement on Gossip Girl continues as Microsoft continues to bash the American pre-teen audience over the head with its Bing browser. The Bing Browser has been featured in several episodes of the Upper East Side Manhattan text messaging driven melodrama.

The episode must have [...]
