CMT Wants to Know Do You Get Country?

Apparently a lot of people listen to country. But if you’re a buyer, you already know this. But in case you don’t or you’re one of those internet geeks that thinks no one likes the genre, MTV/Viacom’s CMT ant to make sure you realize 140 million Americans “get country.”

Well, it’s not hard to believe after all, what will all those flyover states getting in the way of the coasts, right? OK, that was mean. But it’s still true.

Anyway, Barker/DZP is out with a new outdoor kiosk campaign. The kiosks have been placed in front of agencies in New York so if you haven’t seen one already you soon will. And if the kiosk posters are to be believed, there’s isn’t a beer-bellied, Jack Daniels-swilling hillbilly in all of the genre’s listeners.

The toughest generation in modern history isn’t the one that talks about resilience on social media — it’s the boomers who bought houses on single incomes, raised families without parental leave, and rebuilt the economy from the ground up without asking for accommodations

I’m 70 and I just realized the reason I feel lonely isn’t because I’m alone — it’s because I’ve been surrounded by people my whole life who loved the role I played but never actually wanted to know the person underneath it

I’m 73 and I woke up at 3 AM last Thursday with a question I couldn’t put back to sleep – not ‘was I successful’ or ‘was I happy’ but something much simpler and much more frightening: was I kind enough, and did the people I love know it while it mattered?
