This video was banned in 2005. Although Microsoft never officially said why their video was never aired, there has been some speculation that the ad was too close to many mass shootings around the world. It is a video of people in the subway using imaginary guns with imaginary bullets in an unrealistic scenario. Since then there has been other videos that have been more plausible.
In this video Microsoft uses civilian dressed actors to show that “there’s a solder in all of us”. This is an aired commercial for their new game Call of Duty: Black Opps. In it there are civilians using realistic weapons with explosion going off in a realist battle scenario. What has changed in the past 6 years that would allow Microsoft to air a commercial that if in 2005 would be banned?
Robert, Thank you for sharing this post. Moving forward, consider changing the font color so that your audience can read it a bit easier.
ReplyDeleteThe growing popularity of Call of Duty brings up so many issues in terms of violence in the media. Does this have a negative effect on children? Does it inspire the random acts of violence that we've seen such as school shootings? Perhaps those play a role in why Microsoft was unable to use certain images. There is a lot of discussion that could go into this issue - I hope your peers give you some feedback!
