The Public Library of Science has created a 30-second TV spot to air in San Francisco, Boston, and Washington DC. It's also available online, in QuickTime and Windows Media formats (both high and low res versions, depending on your connection speed). The spot started running June 23, although it was only announced today. As far as I know, this is the TV debut of the open-access movement.

The open access movement:
Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature
on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
