Moroch Partners, Joan Rivers Are Apparently Bone-Friendly

Dallas-based Moroch Partners was just crowned Agency of Record by the National Osteoporosis Foundation. Interestingly, Moroch is responsible for quirky McDonalds fare (predating their “we’re healthy we swear to God!” phase) like the excuse generator and the dolphin v. man face-off.

How best to respond to the designation? Moroch Partners considers. Then, in trademark style, it releases a gossipy Joan Rivers PSA where she examines the bones of red carpet stars. Rivers is also the National Osteoporosis Foundation spokeswoman.

The PSA could have been funnier but at least it wasn’t a dolphin v. man or excuse generator revisit. Anything involving Joan Rivers triggers a reflexive wince, a little like preparing for a mental and emotional pummeling.

We’re welcome to being wrong, and maybe it’s the X-ray effect, but for the first time in our short lives we wondered if she’s smarter than she looks. Maybe we grow more sympathetic as the likelihood of getting osteoporosis increases.
