The new Economist

I've just been looking at a fun new website for Absolut by Tequila Sydney.
Thing is, I think it's off brand.
Well in my eyes anyway.
You see I found the site to be fun, but it just doesn't have the class and style I expect from Absolut.
Same goes for the new Economist campaign.
Sure the ads look nice, but they're not in the same league as the original campaign.
What do you think?

Not even close...intellectually The Economist operates on a much higher plane. To compare it to basic necessities is bringing the level down.
I don't think this is the best example in the new campaign, but I do think the Economist campaign was a bit overdue for a re-vamp... not a re-invention or a change in the tone of voice... but it needed a bit of zing added to it.
The previous campaign, despite how much it was lauded, was beginning to feel a bit 'old man' to me.
I hear what you're saying about 'old man' Mike, but isn't that the 'wisdom' that the Economist has built its rep on?
Hate to be the guy who got the brief to redo one of the all time great campaigns.
Me thinks a refresh rather than a whole new campaign might have been better.
True, the brand of the Economist has some very solid foundations to sit upon and it has sat upon them for 20 - 30 years. And I'm sure the marketing department of the Economist wouldn't have dared mess with the campaign if sales had continued to rise among all their target groups. I'm guessing they saw something coming and felt they needed to respond.
We've seen many brands stick to their guns for too long, only to see changing times turn their hard-earnt positioning irrelevant.
I suppose the balancing act in terms of communication is to maintain the cachet of the magazine without slipping into the world of 'old-fashioned'. Whether they have succeeded or not, well that's debatable.
I would love to have seen the brief for this one, I reckon there'd be a lot of insight into why they've made such a change.
Okay I know nothing about the past...clearly you all are working on a much higher plane than me! But how can one argue with the siplicity of this ad? The quote is superior and the artwork is so odd- you kinda study it to see it there is something more to it (turns out- nope. Nothing more to it).....I like this ad. For the simple folks- those of us on a much lower plane. And we are in coach.
Thanx for joining the debate Marcy.
You're seeing the ad completely fresh and judging it thus.
Mike and I are looking at the ad in context of an iconic campaign which has run for twenty years.
So to your point, yes it's a 'good' ad.
My point, is whether this new direction is the right one for the Economist to take.
