Dude. First, Rossi was born in Urbino, Italy.

Second, even if he wasn't "full Italian" whateverthefuck that means, what difference would it make? The ad either uses a negative stereotype or it doesn't.

They'd be better off with the usual ominous low sine wave tone that you hear in attack ads like this.

And why give these jerks the hint of an excuse to play the victim card? Dumb, dumb, dumb....

OK. So what? What if he wants to be taken as Italian only? This matters why?

Kind of the opposite of Iron Eyes Cody, but whatev. People have a right do define their identity, and outsiders have no right to impose another definition on them.

the guineas are right on this. you really cant defend this.

So, is the problem that they suggested a "mob connection" or "dirty business" by the music they chose? Or that they made this suggestion against Rossi who is actually Italian?

I mean, the ad doesn't make fun of Italians. It's a piece of music. Would it be okay if Rossi was Greek? Or Swedish?

the fast pace editing and the music suggested the sopranos opening theme, the sopranos is a northern jersey italian mob family whose empire depends on corrupt construction businesess. duh.

yes dino is a scumbucket, but call him a scumbucket not a dago cuz u gonna piss off all those italo-american democrats who do not want to be thought of as mafiosi just because their last names end in vowels.
