Propaganda At Its Finest...

I spotted the above "Believe It Or Not" ad on the train the other night. Between the options of believe it or not, I choose "not." A note to the MTA: The people of New York still aren't buying it.

The MTA has to be making money hand over fist from all of the corporate advertisers wallpapering the trains and subway stations with marketing materials; yet they want to bleed their riders with another fare hike. Plus, if you're so strapped for cash, shouldn't you stop spending money on making cutesy ads that nobody believes?

[SIDEBAR: $1.17, in what 1902 dollars?]
