I had never really ever given Bitch Magazine (Media) a fair chance. I had always supposed it to be radical feminism and really unintended for my eyes, but I was ignorant in thinking that. Recently, Bitch Magazine published an article about a subject that I find very important; truthfulness in advertising. It was through the article titled, “Mad World: Lets Fix Dinner”, that I found an interest in reading more of their articles.
This article was written by Kelsey Wallace who has been writing as the web editor for BitchMagazine.com. Shortly after having read the article I contacted Kelsey to see if she would like to be a guest on my radio and podcast programs. I am very impressed by this author, someone who is presumably as young as I am. It would be interesting to meet her and allow all of us the opportunity to see what source of talent she draws from.
Here are a few of quotes from her article that I think best demonstrate why this is an article worth reading.
- “Shit gets real in these commercials, folks!”
- “Considering the media-saturated environment we exist in currently, I wouldn’t be surprised if we start seeing more and more multi-platform educational advertising campaigns that go beyond the “buy this product and have a fantasy life!” message and actually attempt to keep it real.
- “True, at heart this is still a commercial that is trying to get us to buy processed cheese in a pan. Still, the Stouffer’s Let’s Fix Dinner campaign is one of the only I’ve seen in recent memory that actually depicts its target demographic in its ads.”
These are a few of the quotes that struck me as being very apt and realistic. Here is the YouTube video of the commercials that were being referenced by Kelsey. Oh yeah, pay attention to the coming weeks and I will hope to have the audio and video from an interview with Kelsey or at least someone from Bitch Magazine.
