10159: Agency Spy Reflects Agency Guys…?

Is Agency Spy the Sodom and Gomorrah of advertising blogs, or is it an accurate barometer for the industry?

This week, the blog featured a series of comment threads with race- and ethnicity-based bullshit.

The first intolerant instance involved the already overanalyzed Bozell-Muse faceoff on AMC series The Pitch.

Next, narrow-minded pinheads left remarks over the resignation of Anomaly Director of Integrated Production Kwame Taylor-Hayford.

Responses to Doug Melville being named Chief Diversity Officer of TBWA completed the trifecta—although there’s still an opportunity for additional bigotry and ignorance on Friday.

The question must be asked: How well do the culturally clueless commentators represent the global ad community?
