The guest was dead wrong about Optima. It's an elegant font, it's the bold version that John McCain uses (and which Hermann Zapf was probably compelled to create for the foundy) which is a lumbering, bumbler-of-a-font.
Actually, I enjoyed this story a lot. On the Media ran a lengthier segment on this topic a few months back that was really fascinating.
Hey, campaigning is advertising. Who can doubt that a lot of thought goes into logos? It's only logical to go to the next step, as in, what do different fonts say about the candidates, and how do customers (whoops, voters) react?
I do have my complaints about this show (apparently, "fast paced and edgy" translates into, bring an interesting person on and cut them off after 90 seconds), but I can't fault them for bringing up this topic.
Fonts? You have to be kidding me. Please do us all a favor, end this foolishness, send John and Adaora back to TV and bring back Bob Edwards.
