KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Some people are saying the way Hillary Clinton and Condoleezza Rice are portrayed in an ad for the new "Stepford Wives" film is distasteful, even outrageous. The spot shows an image of Rice made to look nude from the waist up, and a picture of Clinton that morphs into what looks like a cookie-baking Stepford wife. The pictures move across the screen very quickly, but they caught the eye of a Kansas City woman, who recorded the spot to make sure of what she was seeing. Becky Reynolds said when she taped and watched the ad again, she "realized it was even worse" than what she'd suspected. "It's just inappropriate, and it needs to be stopped," Reynolds said. |  |
I don't think it's anything too serious. It's kinda funny. It's only really in one or two frames. If it weren't for TIVO or Dishplayers we probably wouldn't be hearing about it.
More than likely it was some intern at the advertising agency decided to be Mr. Subliminal and put this into the ad.
