While reading this article about John McCain using Foo Fighters’ “My Hero” for his campaign stops, it brought up something I’ve found interesting about conservative marketing efforts.
Our local conservative talk radio station is constantly playing music clips from liberal rock acts including Nine inch Nails and Nirvana, and I’ve even heard them play Rage Against the Machine completely unironically.
Do these guys not know that the music they’re using to promote their ideologies is written and performed by people who hate their worldview?
It boggles the mind.
