IS ALL PUBLICITY GOOD PUBLICITY
During the super bowl half time commercial there was a young boy playing in his neighborhood riding around on his big wheel and then all of a sudden the big wheel is flipped over with the wheels spinning so you know the boy has been in a terrible accident. The commercial then states one of the number one causes of childhood death is preventable accident. "At nationwide, we believe in protecting what matters most, your kids." (woodtv.com)
I was not happy at all with this commercial to promote insurance during half time with this type of scenario. This commercial was wrong and showed no respect for those who have lost a loved one to a situation like this. This commercial shows a lack of compassion for those who are grieving. Viewers all over the world see this ad, my question is how far are you willing to go just to help save on insurance? Watching the super bowl people are rowdy, yelling for the team they want to win, drinking, eating etc but then when it shows that commercial people attitude changes i know mine did i was like are you serious this is not happening. I went from yelling and happy to sad in just seconds. I was all in my feelings after that commercial.
I know Nation Wide Insurance could have done better then this, it was shocking and not appropriate. I seen the commercial where i believe the child took poison and said he would have been able to go to college but his life was shortened because of what he done to himself. Some of the commercial ads were really good but then there was a few where the commercials were just unacceptable in my opinion during the super bowl.
