DATELINE Pelzer, SC (from The New Bark Times)
Unspeakable Dopeycrat Ad
Propaganda Master has gone too far
| November 3, 2000 -- With only a few critical days to go,
Propaganda Master Melvin Maurice Cheek has found himself defending his latest Dopeycrat
ad, which is intended to lure individuals by bribing them with rawhide chewies in exchange
for their votes. During much of this election season, Cheek has been removed from the day-to-day Dopeycrat campaign. Indeed, he's been busy supervising elves trapped in the dank, rat-infested Dopeycrat button-making sweatshop in Pelzer, SC.
As he shopped it around, he ran into considerable resistance to the ad. Many Program Directors objected to it, and almost all wanted to make changes. However Melvin stood his ground, insisting that the ad must run exactly as he directed. It's too bad the Dopeycrat campaign has no media specialist. Because the ad is visually powerful, it could have been spectacularly successful in a print medium. But it lacked any sound component at all, and as a result over 90 radio stations in key battleground states played 30 seconds of dead air, all paid for by the Dopeycrat campaign. What a waste. Metaphoric for the Dopeycrat ticket.

However with button
sales dropping off, Cheek has suddenly had entirely too much free time on his hands.
He spent days creating the new ad, currently running on radio stations across the country,
which shows Melvin in the back of a brand new red pickup truck surrounded by oversize
rawhide chewies.
