Two television spots developed by a national investment firm
specializing in U.S. gold and silver coins have been rejected by
major television networks, including the Fox News Channel and the
Fox Business Network, for apparently political reasons.
The
ads by Phoenix-based Swiss America Trading Corp., a WND advertiser,
feature President Obama and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke as
animated characters engaging in the potentially inflationary policy
of printing paper money with abandon to stimulate the struggling
economy.
Singer Pat Boone, a spokesman for Swiss America for
more than 15 years, appears in the commercials as an animated
announcer who concludes that investing in gold is a prudent strategy
to diversify a portfolio in inflationary times.
This first
Swiss America commercial plays off the theme Helicopter Ben, a
nickname Wall Street has conferred upon Bernanke for his reputation
of helicoptering into financial crises to dump money on a problem.
