The guy in the story who didn't really notice it is probably typical. Right now in NYC we are being bombarded with in-car subway campaigns for Delta and JetBlue, and now these are flooding the subway entrances. They all blend together.
Thanks you!
It is a business area. Many companies continue to advertise in business areas for products used by the target audience.
Have the terrorists won, should all american ways of life change in reference to the terrorists actions? Isn't that one of the goals of terrorism, to force us to change what we do?
The message of the ad is clear: We fly to many places you like to go. One can try to find a hidden symbolic evil in everything, but really, who is the bad person, the person who tries to move on with business as usual, to continue with recovery, or the person who tries to find fault with everything, to blame a company that was victimized as much as any other company that day, for trying to move on with buisness as usual.
Remember the past, learn from it, but move along with life. Don't let the intents of the evil doers change you forever.
