Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have been so far in the limelight the past months, particularly focusing a lot on their twin kids. And basing it on the magazine cover of W magazine, there is no question that Jolie is pushing for breastfeeding for healthy babies.
But while the intent is for a good cause, Jolie just has to face the fact that appearing on a magazine with partially shown breasts and feeding a baby in tow is bound to create a fuss. And such was the case when her picture came out, something similar when she wore a white nursing bra underneath her tank top on the cover of People magazine after she and Pitt welcomed daughter Shiloh who is now 2 years old.
The black-and-white photo shows Jolie smiling, her long brown hair cascading over her shoulder. The cover headline promises exclusive “private photos” of the 33-year-old actress by her partner Brad Pitt.

That Obama has savvy marketers on his side goes without saying. Their latest effort, KeatingEconomics.com is a microsite with a macro payoff. For there could no better time to paint McCain as a reckless Reagan-inspired deregulator.
In the mini-documentary above, Obama’s team skillfully connects the dots between the S&L scandal of the 1980s and today’s pressing problems on Wall Street. Much to McCain’s chagrin, they also show that the Arizona politician has consistently been on the wrong side of these weighty issues.

There’s a lot of fear running through America and the results ain’t pretty. I know that we write about advertising on this blog, but I just have to comment. Fear prevents progress. We all know this, but just in case you forgot take a look at those deathstar agencies losing market share everyday. Or, better yet, take a look at the blood curdling video above. Doesn’t it feel as though we are about to tip over a dangerous line? Fear begets fear begets fear.
“The only thing we have to fear is fear it’self – nameless, unreasoning, unjustified, terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance.” – FDR, First Inaugural Address, March 4, 1933

Creative duties on Outback Steakhouse are in play. According to Adweek, the five agencies attempting to rustle it up are McKinney in Durham, Chicago’s Ogilvy & Mather, Young & Rubicam, Lowe New York and the incumbent, The Kaplan Thaler Group. Carat holds media duties.
We all know that Kaplan ain’t gonna take this home. Bets anyone?
My money is on McKinney.
