I got to work with Dolly Parton on a few radio commercials I wrote for Dollywood and Pigeon Forge. She was as lovely and sweet as everyone is saying today. it was my rare brush with greatness in my copywriting career. #advertising

Would love to see a Seattle-based ad agency pick this up/ adage.com/agencies/aa-... #advertising #marketing

I accept that we're seeing all sort of AI-generated images in ads. But for heaven's sake, make them less garish.

Sometimes my Reddit feed gets it right in back-to-back posts.

When I was at Normandy I was overwhelmed thinking about 19-year olds from Iowa or Oregon far from home storming the beaches to defeat fascism. Such incredible sacrifice on behalf of people they didn’t know. So Pete- don’t bring your white supremacy to Normandy. You don’t speak for most Americans.

Hegseth at Normandy: "Sadly, today, different European beaches are stormed by different dangerous ideologies. Beaches in Spain and Italy and Greece and Bulgaria. Boats and men arrive. When will European capitals do something about that invasion? Or is it too late? I pray not, and I believe not."

Remember Joe Sedelmaier with this lineup of crazy commercials -- including a few for Alaska Airlines. youtu.be/cz4rzc93VVs?... #advertising #RIP

Hotel surveys are quickly learning the top priorities.

I think the biggest winners of the #Oscars are the makers of double-breasted suits.

I think some of the Oscars commercials are way better than the Super Bowl commercials. Perhaps marketers are willing to do some more inventive work since they’re under less scrutiny but it’s still a big audience.

Kinda funny how this @campaignus.bsky.social @campaignuk.bsky.social headline uses one brand as a verb when talking about another brand’s business. #advertising

Yes the rupture remains. Donald Trump is not going to defend a NATO ally under attack, hence the core of the alliance-Article 5-is not operable for the US while he’s president. Also Rubio’s tone was friendly if you’re a white Christian nationalist.

Chatham House@chathamhouse.org · 7mo ago

Secretary of State Marco Rubio offered a friendlier tone to European nations than JD Vance, but the elephant in the room – the rupture between the US and its NATO allies – remains.

Uhhh...lots of us do, @adweek.bsky.social. You chose only a few. What a snotty headline.

So much 90s nostalgia in these commercials. #superbowl

As you watch the Super Bowl commercials and opine on them, remember: Your Top 5 favorites are someone else's Bottom 5.™ #advertising #marketing #SuperBowl #SBads

This is the ad that Fox News does NOT want you to see. Fox News rejected our newest ad, which demonstrates that Trump has “gone too far” with ICE. But we will not remain silent in the face of these attacks. Share our ad and follow @usjewishdems.bsky.social to join us in the fight.

Lots of #SuperBowl commercials are being pre-released in :60 and :90 lengths in the hopes people will see and like them before the game. Most of them will air in chopped up :30s that come and go in a blip, and are easily forgotten. Marketers get the Big Game wrong. #advertising #marketing

Once again, the ads in the Super Bowl are shaping up to be an overload of soon-to-be forgotten gratuitous celebrity appearances. adage.com/super-bowl/a... #advertising #superbowl

For all their innovation in other areas, Amazon has never done physical retail very well. Living in Seattle, I've seen so many of their stores come and go. www.geekwire.com/2026/amazon-...

Amazon closing all Amazon Fresh and Go stores to focus on Whole Foods and grocery delivery

After a decade of experimentation and expansion, the company says it wasn't able to find the right model for its Amazon-branded grocery and convenience stores.

Haven't seen this job listing before. At least they're not asking for someone with "5-10 years' experience" doing this kind of work. #advertising

GO SEAHAWKS. I am not in Seattle tonight but my dogs just texted to complain about the fireworks.

For all the money they’re spending on these Payton Manning commercials, does anyone really care that Nationwide wants to be known as a “financial services company”? #advertising

Had 4 offers to judge local ADDY shows this year. I'm wondering if AAFs are having a hard time finding judges because it's now entirely sitting in front of a computer judging 100s of case studies. It used to be way more enjoyable going to cities and judging in-person.

35 years ago, we hoped Russia would become more like us. Trump wants US to become more like Russia. At home and abroad.
