car ads question
« on: July 10, 2019, 01:12:08 PM »
Note license plate on this shot taken from Ford's website.  I've often seen the same thing on TV ads.  Why do they do that?  Seems they would either leave the plate off, use a real plate, or stick on one that says Ford.  All brands do it.  Why?

Someone ask Vox. They won't know what it says but they'll be sure it has something to do with Trump and white supremacy.
