White PSP Ad Stirs Racial Debate

sony_whiteiscoming_web_2.jpg

Apparently, there are many people who feel the new Sony campaign promoting its new white PSP is racist because it features a white woman in a position of power over a black woman. Bells and whistles are going off over at Joystiq but there’s also another image that’s part of the campaign that shows the black woman getting her vengeance over the white woman. Can we all just relax? Sony and TBWA, of course, intended the ad to be controversial otherwise it’d sit there like all the other boring ads wasting our time every day. Racist or not, it’s got us talking and that’s half the battle any campaign faces.
