Bud Light Tackles Gender Pay Equality in New Ad

Advertising Age ^ | June 27, 2016. | By E.J. Schultz.

Fresh off a gay marriage-themed ad, Bud Light is using its marketing budget to spotlight another progressive issue: Equal pay for women.

In a TV spot debuting today, Seth Rogen says "women don't get paid as much as men and that is wrong." Amy Schumer, who is co-starring with him in an ongoing campaign, then chimes in: "And we have to pay more for the same stuff," like cars and drycleaning. The kicker: "Bud Light costs the same no matter if you are a dude or a lady," she says.

Those ads are really tiresome.

They need to find another ad agency.

Many ads are annoying including home burglars being white males and most victims being women or minorities.

Great. So piss in a can cost the same for everyone!

[gigster]

Well, if Amy Schumer says it, it has to be right. After all, she is a noted economist.

How is going after less than .01% of the population considered a good ad strategy?

Same with robbers being white in every commercial. The people who makes these commercials are chicken $hit because they never show the truth...

I turn the channel when those commercials with the 2 overpaid, not so funny and over weight schmucks come on.

Women and men, men and men, women and women, all get paid differently based on starting salary, years of experience, breaks in their work careers, job performance, whether they change companies...

There is no convincing evidence that men and women aren’t paid the same for equal work. All the studies that attempt to show unequal pay are hilariously flawed with droves of confounding factors. Libs might have a point that men and women aren’t paid the same no matter what.

As for ‘paying’ more. Nobody forces women to buy the pink razor which costs more for the same reason the spongebob squarepants toothbrush costs more than the ordinary one. Its simply economics.

I remember a TV ad where a little girl hit her father in the groin and the mother of the child said “Don’t do that to daddy, that is mommy’s job.” I don’t recall the product, however. Advertising is another liberal dream fest. Much of it is sick and perverted, brainwashing.

Women pay more for cars???? That makes no sense at all. Are women not as good at negotiating a price as men?

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

What happened to the great Bud Light commercials from the 80s? Man thosea beer commercials from the 70s thru the 90s made you wanna drink the beer thru the TV.

[gigster]

Another thing about Amy Schumer is, she probably doesn't even own a car, so how does she know what they cost?

[a fool in paradise]

she wastes her money on tattoos. She complains too much.
