Cara Swisher and Scott Galloway discussed the controversy surrounding Sydney Sweeney's recent ad campaign. Swisher expressed indifference, calling it a 'stupid ad' and questioning the outrage. Galloway, while also critical of the ad's effectiveness, suggested Sweeney might be receiving bad advice.
“Oh, you know, I don't care. Like, it's stupid. I don't think it's a good ad, okay? I just don't think it's a good ad. I think it's a stupid. It's a stupid pageant ad. And it's not very clever.”
“I think it's... I think it's all the notion that it's ruining women's sports and the outrage. I think it's ridiculous.”
“I'm just telling you. I think she's better. I think she's got some bad advice. That's my feeling.”
