Ladies Night, Done Right

I wish I had a picture of the giant billboard on the building across from my office. It's an ad for Fox Business News, but it took me a while to put it together.

All seven people in the ad are women. Hot, young women. Maybe they have the gravitas of, say, Christine Amanpour, but I'm going to guess not.

Now, I'm sure a Fox News apologist would point out that hey! they're hiring and promoting women! Which is great, except that the ad pretty clearly appeals to men, and perhaps to lipstick lesbians in search of same.

It's aimed right at Madison Square Garden, Penn Plaza, and exits from the LIRR. Greetings, bridge and tunnel crowd! Your beauteous business awaits!
