Talk:Morning in America/Archives/2012

Repetition?

The ad won ad industry awards and praise from the political and advertising world. Republican strategist Dan Schnur said of Riney's work: "Most political advertising hits viewers over the head, while his work makes just as strong a point but in a less confrontational and a more soothing manner." This appears in both this article and Bear in the woods; perhaps some sources for both would serve to differentiate them? Ziggurat 00:38, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Tone

Frankly, this article itself reads like a commercial. And I'd really like to see the verification of "It is generally considered one of the most effective political campaign ads ever." And how can a Family of ads be considered one of the most effective political campaign ads (rather than the most effective families of ads)?

Also, this article is highly similar to the "bear in the woods" article. I have a mind to delete large portions of the article for the above reasons. However, I wouldn't want to do anything that smacked of vandalism, so I will wait a few days to see what response this talk gets, first. William Jockusch 21:08, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

I've replied in the talk page of Bear in the woods. I cite many examples that demonstrate that both ads were effective and resonant. Feel free to revise for tone, but if you plan to delete large portions of the articles, please cite examples that say the ads were ineffective. --Tysto 03:48, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

racism

this commercial is a great time capsule of that certain 80s-type of invisibility of people color.

there's one kid towards the end that looks maybe hispanic, but that's it.
