Obama Infomercial
Thursday, May 29th, 2008Tonight Barack Obama will have a 30 minute infomercial on most of the major network tv stations, and some cable stations. CBS, NBC, Fox, MSNBC, BET, TVOne, and Univision are all carrying Barack’s broadcast speech tonight. This 14 million dollar prime time commercial will be Obama’s “closing arguments” about how he will help out economically disadvantaged citizens. The democratic Senator from Illinois will use this 30 minute video ad to talk to every day Americans and how he will assist them in their struggles.
Due in part to the large amount of donated money spent on this prime time advertisement, a great deal of criticism from both sides of the political spectrum has been flowing. Those defending the Obama infomercial
maintain that it is merely capitalism, just as a corporation would air commercials advertising their products during the Superbowl.
