The above image is a still I shot with my camera of a commercial by the Ramsdell Law Firm. I saw this while I was in Springfield, Missouri, and it’s one of those weird moments of TV surreality that you just can’t believe you saw. Essentially the whole commercial consists of this image, with the flag waving, while patriotic music plays in the background. At the beginning of the commercial there’s a brief on-screen disclaimer about choosing a proper lawyer.
Was this kind of strangeness extant prior to the reality warping effects of the American response to 9/11?
