Title: Honda online video ad with a bald guy
Post by: Rusty Shackleford on March 27, 2010, 09:56:12 PM
I saw an online ad for Honda with a bald guy on the Newsbusters website so I decided to see what it was.  I clicked on it and it takes you to a video ad:

It kinda goes into the "bald goateed guys are tough wrestler types that yell and speak in a deep voice" stereotype but I thought others might want to see it.

We make a statement being SLY BALD

I wanted to laugh  a bit, not cuz he's bald, but just how he acted. It seemed so fake of toughness. LoL  B33r @n(

He got the company's message across, & he did it as a high pressure sale, no different than most ads these days, sly or not--and the plus he put a good consumer message out about interest rates.
I don't see anything objectionable--he is selling motorcycles I think--not lawn mowers.  So it makes sense to me.
