John Oliver Is Educating Trump on Major Issues With DC Ad Buy on Morning Cable News Shows

John Oliver Is Educating Trump on Major Issues With DC Ad Buy on Morning Cable News Shows | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

Several people have figured out that the best way to get a message to President Trump is to do so via a TV program he is likely to watch, but no one has gone to the lengths that John Oliver has to get a television-based message to the president.

On Sunday’s Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, the first new episode since Trump’s inauguration, Oliver revealed that his show has arranged to run a Trump-targeted ad locally in the Washington D.C. market on all three cable news shows Monday morning, between 8:30 a.m. and 9 a.m.

Oliver made the announcement during a segment on the show called “Trump vs. Truth,” about Trump’s reliance on information gleaned from dubious and often false outlets like Brietbart and Infowars, and his alarming tendency to lie about easily-debunked topics such as his inauguration crowd size, much as he did for a decade about the ratings for his NBC series, Celebrity Apprentice....

Jeff Domansky's insight:

John Oliver is onto an interesting way to reach out to POTUS.

I love that the goal here is to EDUCATE our president. It seems like an issue that we need to, but I love the idea.

The Story Behind These Very Strange Anti-Trump Ads That Popped Up in NYC Today

The Story Behind These Very Strange Anti-Trump Ads That Popped Up in NYC Today | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

Out-of-home has been a great venue for anti-Trump advertising this year, from the Nuisance Committee's clever billboards to Wieden + Kennedy's baloney-fixated food truck. Now, we can add an unpaid guerrilla campaign to that list, as some strikingly weird Donald-bashing posters suddenly popped up Wednesday on bus shelters in New York City.


There are five executions in all. Each poster is based on a fictional story—Dr. Strangelove, Dumb & Dumber, Humpty Dumpty, Thelma & Louise and The Shining.


Check out the ads below—in situ, as well as the original artwork.

Several clever anti-Trump bus board ad executions. It's been that kind of campaign!

White House rattled by McCarthy's spoof of Spicer

White House rattled by McCarthy's spoof of Spicer | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

As the press secretary for a president who's obsessed with how things play on cable TV, Sean Spicer’s real audience during his daily televised press briefings has always been an audience of one.

And the devastating “Saturday Night Live” caricature of Spicer that aired over the weekend — in which a belligerent Spicer was spoofed by a gum-chomping, super soaker-wielding Melissa McCarthy in drag — did not go over well internally at a White House in which looks matter.

More than being lampooned as a press secretary who makes up facts, it was Spicer’s portrayal by a woman that was most problematic in the president’s eyes, according to sources close to him. And the unflattering send-up by a female comedian was not considered helpful for Spicer’s longevity in the grueling, high-profile job in which he has struggled to strike the right balance between representing an administration that considers the media the "opposition party," and developing a functional relationship with the press....

No political opposition bigger than humor.

Excitement is building for the final of the three US Presidential debates.

We’re excited to have a scoop about Donald Trump’s final debate strategy courtesy of a leaked email shared with Sean Hannity and me (The PR Coach) from WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange.

Polling reveals Trump opportunity

Campaign Manager Kellyanne Conway’s secret polls have turned up some potentially explosive insight that could help the Trump campaign mount a PR and political comeback according to the email from Conway to Trump.

The secret national poll of registered voters found BBQ was more popular than Hillary Clinton by a whopping margin of 76% to 24% nationally....
