PM MDT Subject: Avis Commercial
Hi everyone:
Last week we received several calls and e-mails from the public and park
staff about an Avis commercial, showing a father and son visiting
Yellowstone and throwing a rock into Old Faithful Geyser. We contacted
Avis to explain our concerns about the commercial and see what could be
done to correct the damaging commercial. Avis was immediately apologetic
and responsive to our concerns. They assured us that they would
immediately take steps to correct the situation.
Avis called today to let us know that they have completely pulled the
commercial from the air and will no longer be showing it. They, once
again, apologized for any misunderstanding caused by the commercial.
Please feel free to contact the Public Affairs Office if you have any
questions about the Avis commercial.
Thank you!
Cheryl Matthews
