With the New York Times (all newspapers) losing readers hands over fists, I had often wondered why NYT cheaped out when it came to TV advertising. At least in the North East and maybe even Los Angeles, they should be pushing the product.
But they aren’t and instead have been suffering us through those lousy “I’ll swap you the magazine for arts” weekend ads airing in the worst places.
But they have a new ad about how cutting edge they are and what do they use to illustrate music? The great Patrick Stickles of Titus Andronicus.
I went looking for the commercial on line and couldn’t find it but hang around and it’ll definitely show up one of these days around 2am on cable.
