Ad Spotlight: Amazon

Amazon has just done something huge - it's become the first mainstream American brand to feature a same-sex married couple in a national television commercial (cue One Million Moms). The gesture is one more act that adds to Amazon's long history of supporting LGBT Americans, most recently last year by supporting Referendum 74 to legalize marriage for same sex couples in Amazon's home state of Washington. Clearly a mainstream-targeted ad (don't expect gays to be giving up their iPads anytime soon), it will be interesting to see if other brands follow suit as marriage equality gains social acceptance and hopefully national legality following this summer's Supreme Court cases.

Love the insight and concept, but the execution feels a bit too photoshopped to me. Read more here.

Ad Spotlight: 1995 Guinness Spot from Ogilvy Currently Going Viral

Apparently Guinness decided never to air the spot.

Ad Spotlight: Ray-Ban

Ray-Ban was a 2012 GLAAD Amplifier Award Nominee.

Ad Spotlight: Minnesotans United For All Families

Correct messaging here... there are still many people who think legalizing gay marriage means churches would have to marry gay couples, and that's not true. And by the way, voting no on the amendment still doesn't legalize gay marriage – it just prevents the existing ban from being enshrined in the state's constitution.

This Pride ad from Chevrolet is going viral. Really nice work.
