They might accept that given a choice between only a state funded broadcaster and adverts, adverts are preferable, but people do complain if ad breaks get longer, more frequent, or more intrusive (sound compressed to seem louder).
(And TV companies complain that if too many people watch on time-shifting devices that can easily skip ads, which more and more do, they will lose revenue.)
