Canada–A nice, father-positive ad from Rogers TV. Apparently the ad is the Rogers TV type of TiVo. Doesn’t the father-son interaction here look a hell of a lot more like you and your kid than the relentless parade of “dad-as-idiot”
commercials we’re subjected to? To learn more about the problems with the way men are portrayed in advertising, see my column Father Knows Best (Adweek, 3/12/07) and my co-authored column Advertisers: Men Are Not Idiots (Advertising Age, 4/14/08).
