I couldn’t really believe it when I saw this commercial for the first time. Many thoughts entered my head, including “Wow, they are being so honest”, “Are they actually saying that on TV?” and “I am surprised the FDA actually made them do this.”

This Yaz commercial starts off with a woman saying how the FDA told them to clarify a few things from their previous commercials. She then goes into those clarifications.

The Lesson of The Day: When a commercial, and therefore the business, makes a mistake, there are a few ways to deal with it. They could ignore it and hope no one notices, they could pull all existing ads and replace them with new ones, or they could do what Yaz did and be honest about it and make the changes. By being honest, most people will respect the honesty and feel better about the company. Like they say, honesty is the best policy.
