AutoBlog Says "Hey Stoopid" to GM's Ad Agency

It's funny, and it's about advertising, and about industries that are slow to change, thus it qualifies to be posted here.

Excerpt from Autoblog's take on General Motors sexist madness:

The stupidity starts right on the first inside page, with bold print proudly proclaiming “Boys play with trucks. Girls play with dolls. Let’s start there.” Things don’t get any better. The whole thing just reeks of ad guys who are trying to act tough, when we know damn well they’re not driving pickup trucks to their chest-waxing appointments.

It doesn't lose any steam from there. :)
