Time Warner's Hilarious Verizon FiOS Attack Ad Image courtesy of Competition brings out the best in employees, friends, and companies, as demonstrated brilliantly in Time Warner's attack ad against Verizon FiOS. The scenario is that a cocksure suburban dude is interrupted making a bowl of fiber cereal by the doorbell.
SFX: Doorbell rings 3 times.
VERIZON: Good morning! Have you heard about THE FIBER?!
HOMEOWNER: I think I’m taken care of in that department.
VERIZON: But I’m talking about Verizon’s kind of fiber!
HOMEOWNER: And I’m talking Time Warner Cable. They’ve been using fiber optics for over a decade. Welcome to the program!
ANNOUNCER: Call 1-888 TWCABLE today and get roadrunner highspeed online and home phone service for as low as $29.95 each for the first 12 months.
HOMEOWNER: Ooh, you’re looking a little bunched up. Need some help?
