Super Bowl Commercials and the Power of Business Humor
Super Bowl commercials are a very big deal. There’s even a show about Super Bowl commercials. There are commercials about the show about the commercials. Some of the commercials on the show about the commercials are about the Super Bowl.
There’s news coverage about a VW commercial that features a white guy from Minnesota who speaks with a Jamaican accent and who is always upbeat. Some pundits say that’s a racist portrayal. ABC news asked D.L. Hughly, a black comedian, whether he thought the commercial was racist. “I can’t understand what I’m supposed to be mad about,” he said.
Business humor is the common element in all of the commercials. The businesses that are spending big bucks on Super Bowl ads understand that good business jokes get people’s attention and thus help to sell products and services.
