Lovin’ the McDonald’s ad – and hatin’ it
McDonald's new advertisement receives a mixed response.
A new ad from McDonald’s that aired during the Golden Globes is getting almost as much buzz on Twitter as a celebrity’s red carpet outfit. Reactions range from lovin’ it:
To those who make the ad seem like a McDisaster:
Against a musical backdrop of kids singing, the ad shows local franchises using their signs to support their communities — including “We remember 9/11” and “Keep jobs in Toledo.” The chain also has a blog telling the stories behind each marquee. It’s unclear if the company’s portrayal of itself as a community-builder will be enough to strengthen its ailing brand.
The whole thing has us wondering… what’s the sign say at the McDonald’s where you live? Is it more “Happy 30th Ed and Beth” or “Over 99 billion served”? Let us know on Facebook.
