The journalists at Good Morning America on Thursday were sufficiently provoked by a pro-American Cadillac commercial that they devoted a whole segment to wondering if the spot was “arrogant” and “xenophobic.” GMA’s reporters, who couldn’t find any time to cover former IRS head Lois Lerner pleading the Fifth on Capitol Hill, devoted almost three minutes to the “backlash” against the car commercial.
The ad features a man strolling around his large house, praising the free enterprise system and the work ethic of Americans: “Other countries, they work. They stroll home. They stop by the café. They take August off. Off!” Co-host George Stephanopoulos worried, “Is it selling a confident take on America with a sense of humor or showing off an arrogant caricature that is just plain obnoxious?”
