In Poor Taste?
I just saw a commercial for Florida orange juice. Normally, this wouldn’t warrant comment, since it seems like they’re always running in one form or another. However, this commercial was a bit different. It flashed up the dates and names of some of the hurricanes that hit Florida this year along with a voiceover reminding us that we’re helping to rebuild Florida with every glass of orange juice. Is it just me or does this seem a bit sleazy? It reeks of opportunism and strikes me as being in poor taste.
