Looking at this commercial, I want to see a parody of it with the WaMu Guy homeless and the rich banker laughing at him
-
Wow a lot of finger pointing and name calling directed at WaMu here. WaMu was allowed to fail, all the banks had major sub-prime exposure, but who got helped out? I think the major banks and their buddies at the Fed and in the government, enacted their revenge in 2008, while other banks got bailed out, the people-friendly, largely fee-free bank takes the blame, and is not saved from Bankruptcy. Looks like they pissed off that banker's pen.

As a white male, you cannot TRUELY be offened by this.

@rf101259 I used to work for WAMU, left after the merger. Didn't believe in Chase culture and DEFINITELY didn't believe in its products. WAMU MISSED!

I used to work for WAMU, loved working for them, great company. I miss WAMU. I now work for *another* bank and I can tell you, big difference. Wish WAMU was still around!

When you offend the strong, you have no one left to support you.
Good riddance, "WaMu".

Easily the most obvious example of racist advertising. A group of stodgy white bankers corralled together to represent the 'old school way of banking' and the smart ass young black guy coming off as the new standard. If this was all reversed, there would have been a shitstorm of controversy.

Only Americans would find this TVC racist. I'm an Australian and I love this commercial, it was used as a case study by my advertising agency and not one person made a racist reference. It makes fun of the STEREOTYPE of BANKERS, not white people. Using the african american as the staff member of Washington Mutual, shows that they are DIFFERENT. That is all. Stop trying to make this brilliant piece of advertising into something that it is not.

Obviously, WaMu's brilliant ideas were not able to save them. Most likely it was those ideas and their pandering to the perpetually stupid that caused them to fail

Don't you love this racist advertisment?
The hip Black WaMu guy tortures and humiliates old White bankers who wanted to do banking the old way.....
Like not making $400,000 mortgage loans to minorities and illegal aliens who had bad credit scores or insisting on down payments, proof the home buyers had stable jobs.
Yep, WaMu loaned $ billions in sub prime mortgages to bad risk minorities in California, Vegas - now the loans went south, WaMu is history, the US economy is tanked. Thanks.
