To go along with William's Thread on Women in Adverts: What do you all think about the new ads by Cingular? I'm trying to find a link, but the gist is this:
2 guys are looking at a TV broadcast on a cellphone, one White, one Asian. The phone rings and the White guy says "Your TV gets phone calls?" The Asian man answers his phone and to get rid of the White guy, he throws a tennis ball for the White guy to fetch.
How do you think this ad is being received? Do you think there would be a difference in response if different ethnic backgrounds were represented? If it were women in the ad?
(I'll be back with a link, it has to be out there somewhere...)
