Itâs fine she has an opinion about Cannes, everyone does. But itâs funny how she works for a newspaper and doesnât understand how advertising affects the existence of her job. Sheâs either ignorant, in denial or extremely stupid.
Sheâs so wrong. There are no junior ad execs there, only seniors.
.
Two things:
- 1. This dude is in no way going to stay an AE for long if he hates advertising. Kind of a dumb career move. I hated complex math so I stayed my ass out of accounting.
-2. I literally had a brain surgeon on my team at my last agency. Although it is pharma. Iâve had a pediatric oncologist, immunologists, and rheumatologists on my teams as well.

âAn industry in denialâ is my favorite comment. Nothing captures Cannes better.
I see her point about Cannes but shes a little harsh on the industry as a whole. I hope she doesnt think "subscriptions" are what keeps her newspaper alive.
Sheâs a newspaper writer who doesnât understand ad dollars are what keeps her employed? Okay...
Look I think Cannes is ridiculous but so is this level of hypocrisy, Carol.
What she doesnât seem to understand is that ad revenue is a drop in the bucket to the money that Google and Amazon are making from enterprise level cloud storage. Thatâs really where all the data is, but we are an easier target as we can all see from her blistering report that was created by searching the very site sheâs railing against. So meta.
