The Most Damning Promo of All Time

by Jaime Weinman on Friday, March 18, 2011 12:32pm - 4 Comments

I was looking for one of the Two and a Half Men syndication promos that have reportedly incorporated the Sheentroversy into their advertising. I didn’t find them on YouTube, but I did find this, apparently made for a station in Augusta, Georgia. It’s quite possibly the most withering, corrosive criticism I have ever seen of Sheen’s show and its influence on culture and society, literally using its own words against it. And it was made to promote the show. Very strange.

    I didn't know Augusta could be that satirical…

    A very unique approach to marketing there.
