I'd remove it immediately (it it horrendous) but the guy is spending money on having it there so I thought I'd at least approach him about it and give him a chance to do something about it before just pulling it.
Sorry guys, in the meantime crams suggestion of adblock or opera's block function will have to do.

Also, let him know that blinking adverts make people hate him and his product.  They call attention to it, but not in the manner he wishes.

That line about "there's no such thing as bad publicity" only applies to show biz, as Richard Nixon and Willy Horton discovered the hard way.

"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."

I said that I was getting a lot of complaints about it flashing and if he wanted to put up something else he could

Tell I have a hate for him that is laser-like in its purity.

If he says anything along the lines of "its not that bad" or anything other then he'll remove it I will do.

Tee shirts.  Bad tee shirts that make you cringe when you see someone wearing one at a party, etc.

For example, "IT'S MOTHERFUCKING BOOZE TIME". 

Tiresome.
