Wasn't there an ad just released comparing Lexus to the Audi, BMW, etc. as "better" than the others? It happens all the time.

There are plenty.

Windows and apple with their tablet commercials.

Lexus and Cadillac.

Infiniti and BMW.

Taco Bell finding people named Ronald McDonald.

Those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

You serious bro? You don't know much about marketing. I can't keep count how many times I've seen Comcast or Direct T.V. mention each other in their commercials to gain a competitive advantage. It's called competition awareness. It allows viewers to understand what market your in, who your competing with, and why your product is better. The commercial is fine. Simple and to the point. We are a local search engine that helps you find local businesses and we have 16 million businesses listed. They caught the attention of people who want to search locally and the audience that wants to add their business to the website. You know what your talking about....SIKE

Not even going to bother with the absurdity of this guy's post.

Um right now:

Jag compares itself by name to BMW, Audi and Mercedes

Hyundai compares against Honda

Brawny compares against viva

Samsung compares against apple, etc

This ad is not a comparison, it is showing you that the old way (yellow pages) is the old way...the new way is directory.com

But nice try with your rhetoric.

Nice Try, did you ever see McDonalds mention BK in commercials?
Did you ever see Toyota mention Honda in a commercial?
and I can go on and on.
the ad is so clear to understand unless you are 2 yr old.
next time come up with something better please.

ONE QUICK EXAMPLE -[url]

VS VERIZON COMMERCIAL[/tag]

This is just one of many commercials where you will see your example.

You need to move past your crying and be happy with what they did. They referenced a well known business that has been in existence for over 100 years that just about everybody knows what they do.

Turn your TV on June 1st and watch the commercial. Hopefully you have extended cable to get the higher channels.
