English term or phrase: shock-value billboards
Still, even experts can't agree on what works, so governments have relied on blunt instruments such as shock-value billboards or promoting nutrition and fitness guidelines.
J'aurais tendance à parler de tableaux de valeurs nutritionnelles, mais il me semble qu'en anglais, ce serait "table". Aussi, pour "shock", je n'ai que retentissant en tête.
Merci!
