26. I've heard of men who sit and watch Fox all day. Their demographic seems to be old white guys.

However, many of these old white guys are married, and presumably such an ad has the potential to reach those women.

Because I would think any woman who overheard this ad from the 'den' or perhaps 'boar's nest,' would edge in a little closer, maybe look into the room and see what was playing. And further, I would think that maybe 90% of women who are exposed to this ad would be pretty furious about it.

See, I'm thinking these Fox watchers are pretty em-bubbled. Hmm, is that a word? Anyway, what about their wives? Where do they get their news? Because if hubby ONLY watches Fox, it means that the spouse is forced to endure that crap too. But...like I say, any woman who looks at this ad will very likely be angry and may be moved to look a little more deeply into what is going on with their bodily autonomy and who is behind them losing their rights.

Yeah, republicans would XanaDUer2 Apr 10 #8

Good point. Unfortunately these ad people need to adjust the dialog and text down to 6th grade level. n/t PatrickforB Apr 10 #16

Exactly -- sixth grade level. Or maybe not require any reading at all. People are used to ignoring pnwmom Apr 10 #23

This needs to run hourly on Fox 'news' and throughout the cable spectrum. It is VERY GOOD! n/t PatrickforB Apr 10 #14
