Executive Meddling/Advertising

Occasionally Advertising is subject to Executive Meddling

You know the car commercial about Honda which had some kids trying to race a kid back to his house and he manages to beat them home when he gets to his mom's car? Well, the original commercial had the kids not saying anything at all, and the kids were much bigger. Apparently it was edited because some parents didn't like it as it indicated bullying.
Used in-universe by Sprint for a movie theater commercial: An animated movie is almost finished, and the studio demands pants on the hedgehog.
There once was a commercial aimed directly towards people who wish to avoid this: At an executive boardroom-meeting, one of the executives pitches an idea for the man who does not speak, but speaks only through his actions. Of course, the other executives quickly devolve the idea to a talkative hero, much to the first executive's dismay.
