SLICK AD: On Monday--just in time for spring break--USA Today will carry a full-page ad that extols the joys of Huntington Beach and Newport Beach. . . . Produced by city tourism officials, the ad was placed by British Petroleum at a cost of about $143,000. . . . InterCommunications Inc, a Newport Beach-based agency, took a reduced fee for the ad, which makes no mention of February’s oil spill. “We felt people would get the message,” said the agency’s Toni Alexander.
