"Scotty from Marketing"

#1 Post by Fliegenmong » Tue Jan 21, 2020 9:57 am

It's the new nickname for Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison, alluding to his 'Ad man' past. I think it is hysterical myself, he freaking hates it & has fobbed it off to Labor being 'Snarky'. But failing to understand it was the Nations satirists that coined the phrase, not Labor at all.

On an evening radio program I often listen to there is a panel of advertising / PR people. Tonight they were united in the idea that that level of ridicule is very insilting indeed to someone in , or once within the industry.

Personally I find his deep involvement in evangelical tax cheats such as 'Hillsong' to be far more troubling...but that's just me.

Wouldn’t insilting be more applicable to ads for farm irrigation equipment Fliegs? Better check with Scotty! ;)))
