Will They Ever Get it Right?

The radio advertisement on 600 WREC mistakenly attributes the classic James Bond theme “Diamonds Are Forever” to the film Goldfinger, when in fact, Shirley Bassey performed the title song specifically for the Goldfinger movie.

One would assume that after broadcasting a commercial for more than twelve months, any glaring errors would have been identified and corrected. The persistent presence of such a mistake suggests either a deliberate choice or an oversight that has somehow escaped widespread critique, which seems increasingly improbable given the extended period of exposure.

Then again, perhaps revising the advertisement would cost more than preserving their reputation.
