Easily the most obvious example of racist advertising. It makes all the white people look like fools except for the smart ass young black guy . If this was all reversed, there would have been a shitstorm of controversy.
wouldnt it be funny if the deamon and his nyc possie stole wamu cuz these commercials pissed him off -true he needed western presence and had sheila at the fdic handed it to him - but maybe it was the commercials that set him off LOL

Racist against white men--and WAMU got what they deserved for putting their money into people who can't handle it--lots of them minorities. By the way--the real banksters are JEWISH--look at the list of names in the Federal Reserve. All these white haters are blaming the wrong gang. Blame the people Jesus threw out of the temple, not the European descendants of Christianity.

Actually, what I find funny is the correlation between the Wamu commercials and the presidential elections. On one side... The slick talking young african american talking about how hes going to "change" the way banking works. On the other... The crotchey old white guys wanting to do it the same way its been done(and working) for the last 50 years. A bit of irony?.... I should think so.
Jeeze gestapo, don't you see all the benefits of affirmative lending as they are now unfolding? Heck, I bet obama could have worked wonders with the ACORN's 20 percent cut of the 700B bailout (that he advocated). Those folks really know finance and can make 140 billion go a long way. That's a lot of bling.
Does anyone notice how pervasive anti-white male racism is in commercials? This one was just the most blatant example. Look how often they portray white guys as stupid in ads. It's probably beacuse they see minorities as a growth area, and are pandering to their anti-white racism.
The white guys (who knew that loans had to be repaid) "They just don't get WaMu's way of banking" are still in business and WaMu isn't I guess experience and knowledge is so "last century".
Wamu has just been seized by the Feds, and will be taken over by JPMorgan. Yaaaaaaaa - their "new banking methods" sure worked GREAT, huh? Good riddance to a pack of anti-white racists.

Ha Ha for WAMU finacially failing. They were the WORST,most manipulative, greeding bank I have ever done business with. They are getting what they deserve. WAMU, go to hell!
Okay if wamu commerciasl are racist name one black CEO that runs a bank if you can name just one then ill shut up and say that wamu commercials are racist
I would watch that show seems like it be hilarious a bunch of bankers fighting with the upeer middle class(wich is most of the population)... ohh and another thing you all are making way too much of the black host. you all need to stop being so racist your sefs and see past that
I have to give Washington Mutual a lot of credit. I worked there for 2 months. Everyone liked their job somewhat and the people were very professional. I also worked at a place with the initials CW. They did not like to work, lost funded files, cursed, and complained.
Even the CW commercials suck. Wamu commerials are Classic! Get a home loan or bank with them.
The old bankers portrayed in this ad may be "out of touch", but Washington Mutual is dishonest and treads on the lines of legality. They recently froze and canceled my checking account for no apparent reason. I have called them five times and the only answer I get out of them is that "it will take fifteen days to process." Meanwhile, I am unable to pay my rent, or my son's tuition. Thanks wamu.

The moment I saw this commercial I expected a hord of white viewers over react to it. The same white viewers that never think twice over the thousands of hate media produced by whites over decades and decades.
Simply put, if a white men had to switch places with a non white, he would survive about a month before going mad.
you know living here in the Seattle area , WAMU trumps itself as the "hometown" small bank from Washington. they are literally in every corner of this country. which WASHINGTON are they referring to? I think their commercials are very racist. I'd never bank there. MY GOD REVERSE THE RACE HERE? WHAT WOULD YOU SEE? RACISM?
WAMU is a rip off they charged me 4 $32 fees for 1 over draft charge they told me i would only be charged 1 $32 fee on the phone next i looked at my state ment and sawl they are liers cheaters and stealors i will not bank with them again.
"I feel freeee as a barnswallow!" lol. I work for WaMu and I find these commercials hilarious. The commercials are really employee driven - if you worked for WaMu, you'd find them more hilarious then most of you people do :P
Well, if you didn't find it then no one has it up yet. But there is another. As I said before it's basically another shorter cut of this version, except with no music in the background. In fact I saw it again this morning. Which confirms that I was right all along.
Actually, there's another version of this commerical. There's less music in the background. It kind of gives a bit of insight to the guy on the floor. Oh well. They must've thought the commercial was great cause they can't stop making them. Just like 'Geico'. They went' from 'Gecko' to 'Caveman'. How the f**k did that happen?
I totally agree with you x7igh. It's just a commercial. Why read so much into it? It was meant to be funny, not racist. I took it as funny when I first saw it. No wonder racism never dies. People keep dragging it up all the time. Even in something that was meant to be a take-off of Jerry Springer.
