Wendy’s Unofficial Officially Fired

Okay nothing broadband here, but Wendy’s have fired their unofficial spokesperson because the man was not up to the snuff. So what does this really mean… he is now officially a former unofficial spokesperson. My head is spinning!

Yeah that guy was horrible. They should have fired him before any of those ads ever aired. Dave Thomas was much more persuasive.

Don’t blame the character. All he did was follow the agency’s script. Fire the agency. Change the marketing director. Look for a “fresh” idea. Wendy’s always was about Fresh in the burger. To attempt to even emulate Dave Thomas in *ANY* way will only be failure…they proved that, at the shareholder’s expense too.
