Advertising Age presented two interviews—“Jimmy Smith on Mentors, Racism and the Future of Advertising” and “Ikea’s Leontyne Green Talks About Diversity and Marketing to African-Americans”—apparently sharing the unabridged sections from the “African American Execs on Life in Adland” piece published earlier in the week. Despite allegedly being part of Ad Age’s Black History Month celebration, both interviews went straight to The Big Tent. Um, isn’t Black History actually American History? Shouldn’t these interviews have appeared in the main publication section versus the minority space?
