Husky Media: Puny Video Ads are for Puny Marketers!

Video ad firm Husky Media has decided to ride against the tide, offering advertisers big-ass ads instead of feeble pre-rolls and teeny ticker tape text. View the demo video, which makes the proposition look sane: videos flanked on either side by gigantor ad messages. It’s about as offensive as Coverflow.

“At Husky Media, we believe bigger is better and will never succumb to the shrink ray,” boasts Co-CEO David Carson of Husky. “We’ve been seeing it everywhere this summer, from the size of a cup of yogurt to dog food to cheese wheels to ‘staycations’ to 14 oz. pints of beer. Isn’t a pint supposed to be 16 oz.? This is one summer trend we will not let idly pass. Last I heard WE LIVE IN AMERICA.”

That’s officially the Best PR Quote Ever. Bonus points if he starts appearing in public with a cowboy hat.
