AT&T Hissy slaps Verizon with really bad attack ads
Brandon Davenport
Verizon had somewhat of a successful ad campaign because they were being the voice for every person in America. They said AT&T's service sucks, and that's what we've wanted noticed, especially as iPhone users. AT&T is done sulking in the corner and the company seems to have decided that the only thing to do in the short term is to start 'advertising' right back at Verizon. Unfortunately, the ads look like they have been put together overnight with supplies they found lying around: like an orange board, a bucket of magnets, an abandoned orphanage, and Luke Wilson.
But that's just my sensibility talking :P
Overall, this commercial is a really simple, but they have the facts about their company wrong. There may be a small chance they have a faster 3G network in some areas, but Verizon has the best coverage. When they say "most popular smartphones" and "100,000 apps" they mean the Apple iPhone and App store, which Verizon may have in 2010.
What are your thoughts?
