A black hip-hopper made a Mountain Dew ad in which a white detective asks a badly wounded woman to identify which of four suspects assaulted her. The suspects are three black men (the writer's band members) and the goat, who was guilty of the assault shown in detail in a previous commercial that ends with a black police officer finding incriminating evidence. Pepsico pulled the ad after a black blogger said it was racist against blacks, inferring they are guilty of all assaults. The real racism however is that the white detective only suspected that blacks or the goat might be guilty. That is a subtle racist point made by someone. however, since most white police detectives are racist against blacks and others it is sufficienhtly close to 100% accurate to be written by a non-racist social critic. therefore the blogger might be the only real racist involved in the story, but not out of malicious racism, but ignorant impulsive subconscious thought.
A commercial involving a goat, three suspects, an assualted/battered woman, and a police officer . . .this is for a carbonated beverage isn't it?
Apparently in the first commercial the goat beat her up because he wanted more Mountail Dew. I supposed they planned another in the cortroom and another in the prison. Possible slogans: Mountain Dew: the drink worth killing for, I'd Dew anything for a Dew, then the most offensive ad ever: Martin Luther King Jr. saying, "I've been to the Mountain, and it tasted great."
