| Description: | DO NOT USE Clip of an anti-NIXON/AGNEW ad from 1972, which features a disembodied man's voice laughing at a TV set which, instead of a sitcom, turns out to be showing the slogan "Agnew for Vice-President". The kick line of the ad is "This would be funny if it weren't so serious" [I think there's some kind of postmodern manipulation of irony in the "tv ad within a tv ad" formula...]. | |
