They can pool their funds for free speech anyway they like, whether they are in business together or not. And last time I checked, the New York Times and NBC are corporations. But thanks for playing along. Umm, no smart guy, the people have a right to freedom of association and speech.

Sure GE is a US company but they, like so many US corporations, go abroad to train $4/week laborers to build our stuff for us. We hired the Chinese to make solar panels for us and now they are marketing direct at something like 60% of the cost of US made solar panels. Free Trade NOTHIN !!! I say its time to get back to some calculated protectionist trade policy. You hear what those Red-China generals said they should do to the US earlier this week?

While I agree that ad is ridiculous I don't see a problem with trying to raise civil awareness trying to boost compliance in the Census. And yes Be All You Can Be (for decades) and all variety of "hip" ads are used to entice people into selective service. kmad I think you missed the mark on this one.
