"what the... fuck?"
Nubian of Blac(k)ademic spots a PlayStation Portable White ad that might represent a new low Madison Avenue, pictured at left.
(View full-sized image here.)
What can you say about an ad like this?
How about... Dear Sony,
Please fire your ad agency. Lynching isn't a joke. Do not attempt to convince the gaming public that your system is superior by likening your potential customers to anime-besotted Klansmen. Yours truly, &c
Nubian is encouraging readers to complain to Sony about the ad. Here is the contact information she supplies:
