Fail.
Via Telegraph:
President Barack Obama’s political action group, Organizing for Action, is out with a new advert urging Congress to raise the national minimum wage for millions of low-paid Americans.
Set to rising music, the 30-second commercial features a medley of images of hard-working Americans going about their day.
There’s only one problem: one of those “hard-working Americans” is in fact a London Overground commuter.
A woman featured in the advert’s opening seconds is riding aboard the London train system as she looks wistfully out the window and clutches a coffee cup.
Over her shoulder, a map shows the London Overground’s eastern-most stations of New Cross and Surrey Quays.
The commuter train is suspiciously empty, leaving the distinctive brown and yellow patterned seats clearly visible.
