Watch Google's Eric Schmidt in New TV Ad for The Economist
Posted in: Uncategorized
A new TV commercial from The Economist stars Google Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt as someone you don’t want to look dumb around. Which is to say, he’s playing himself.
In the 30-second spot, which starts running globally Monday on CNBC, Mr. Schmidt steps into an elevator with an unsuspecting young man as a British-accented narrator says, “Oh, look, it’s Eric Schmidt. Ready for a nice chat?”
If the young man reads The Economist, he will be well prepared for that chat, according to Michael Brunt, head of circulation at The Economist.
