it is kind of an unsettling ad. I could see why people find it offensive. Dude looks like some 1920s portrayal of a black dude.

My stance on the PSP advertisement is--well, I think it's in bad taste, but if you want to interpret racist vibes from a picture, you'll get them. That goes for many other things, and not just racism.

In and of itself, the picture is harmless. In other words, people are reading between the lines and magnifying the advertisement.

This ad is for a Japanese company. Do you really think they give a rat's ass how americans portray this ad.

they should have painted the black model with white paint and black paint on to the white model...i think that would be ok, if the black model was holding the white model by the jaw...i think...
