A round up of commentary on advertising from Sunday’s Super Bowl. More tomorrow.
- Ad Age – Which commercials did best on social media?Beckham did best.
- Mother Jones & Storify – Which ads got not-so-great Twitter attention?
A number of rather sexist ads got tagged with #notbuyingit on Twitter to indicate viewers’ dissatisfaction with objectification. Mother Jones reports using Storify. - Forbes – Why Madonna didn’t get paid for half-time show
Lots of jokes to make here, but real answer is because it was an $80 million dollar ad for Brand Madonna - Forbes – Why was there a takedown order on Chrysler’s Clint Eastwood ad?
It wasn’t Chrysler. If you hadn’t noticed, at one point today, the varied copies of the big half time ad were all subject to a DMCA takedown order. Not what Chrysler would have wanted. I had to go through three links over on my Tumblr before I could get it to stay up.
