somebody give this guy some work! i can't believe he was fired for that spot.
It makes a lot of sense as to why he was fired. He made an anti-Hillary campaign ad while working for an agency hired by Hillary's campaign to promote her.
This puts egg on the agency's and the campaign's faces, and predictably, they fired the guy in order to distance their association with him.
The media have given much attention to this as an "anti- Hillary" ad.
Am I the only one who doesn't see the point of this ad as anti Hillary? Or, more exactly, having anything to do with Hillary?
I have read "1984" and well remember the brilliant Apple ad dissing all those brain-washed DOS users. But what does this political ad, evoking a Big Brother government that derives its legitimacy and power from a constant state of war and total surveillance of its citizens, have to do with Hillary's political career from Arkasas Governor First Lady to White House First Lady to New York Senator?
Wrong candidate, wrong party, wrong election cycle.
There are plenty of us who are thinking different. I'm using my apple computer to tell you that I have launched a group to carry out voter registration for Obama supporters who are London ex-patriots, even though I am British and therefore unable to vote. Anti democratic?
No, just a concerned (non) citizen.

I have to second Oresta's sentiment. I'm not a huge Hillary supporter, but I don't see what it is about her that would make the Big Brother title apply. Really, couldn't footage of Clinton be replaced with footage of almost any other candidate and still have the same effect?
