Escort Quality, Hooker Pricing

In New Jersey, a vodka company has put up this billboard. Talk about the coarsening of America. That a vodka company would want to be affiliated with prostitutes... like men who drink their vodka can only get women if they pay for them? Surprising.

Bronx Residents Upset over Vodka Billboard
RUSH: New York Daily News: Bronx community leaders are upset with a billboard selling vodka. It "greets drivers near an area once synonymous with prostitution." The billboard names the vodka, and the line on the billboard is: "Escort Quality, Hooker Pricing." The Bronx community leaders are not happy about this. "Bronx’s Community Board 2, who have been battling for a decade to revamp Hunts Points reputation as a place to pick up hookers. 'When I saw it I almost fell out of my seat,' said Rafael Salamanca Jr., district manager for CB 2. 'That's an inappropriate billboard given what the Hunts Point community has gone through in the past.' The creators of the ad stood by it, but said they’d be responsive to feedback." So you got a picture of a lamb wearing a cowboy hat, a bottle of vodka: "Escort Quality, Hooker Pricing," in Hunts Point in the Bronx.

It's obviously working.

The population there, the citizens, the residents obviously get the meaning of it.
