Richard Branson?

[Bushman]

This is from the latest Virgin publicity shoot?



I mean don't get me wrong, very alluring, but imagine if Rupert Murdoch or Marius Kloppers were photographed groping an employee?

Yet Richard gets away with it and it enhances the power of his brand? Is it because he is English? I don't get it. Back to Marketing 101 for me.

 

[Prospector]

It is wrong on so many levels but he always gets away with it!

 

[prawn_86]

Its because he's a high flying self made entreprenuial adventurer millionare.

I thought that was easy to see...

 

[Ashsaege]

I cant even see Richard Branson in the photo!

 

[Big_Daz]

I don't see anything wrong with this...why should he change his image to something he is not? He has always been very charasmatic and pushes the envelope wherever he can.

I am a big fan of him...and his employees for the looks of that photo.

Ah ha... surely at some point though people will just start to see him as a rich dirty old man that gropes young models? I mean that photo is cringe worthy.

Anyway I'm off to start me an airline and damn your rules and conventions

 

[MrBurns]

It's because -

He's Richard Branson and Rupert Murdoch isnt.

He's Gay. (I think)

 

[MRC & Co]

Like Hugh Hefner?

 

[Aussiejeff]

He's not groping a model.

He is simply manually ass-essing the flight-worthiness of the Chief Hostess. Note the new hostesses neat, simple & colorful uniform.

Gee, you's lot have durty mindz.

Go, Tricky Dicky, go!

 

[pilots]

You should read the book on him, good reading.

 

[tech/a]

Their having a great time,I don't see her beating him off with a stick.
In fact I'm sure she's flattered.

Prudes you'll not aren't featured in photo's like these.

I'm with you mate. If it wasn't for him we would be paying three times the price one way to the Gold Coast like we were 20 years ago.

Competition with a bit of flamboyancy is great thing. Thanks Mr Branson, we love ya and need ya, stuff Qantarse.

 

[theasxgorilla]

I don't know where you all get off calling him Richard Branson! Show some respect.

He's Sir Richard Charles Nicholas Branson, or Sir Richard Branson for short.

 

[nunthewiser]

Sir dick?

 

[Solly]

What a beautiful bird;

Fly-by-wire control, glass cockpit, ETOPS certification, Mach 0.84 cruise, twin General Electric GE90-115B's, If only those two in the front would have moved out of the way you would have really seen what a beautiful body it is.

If only I was certified on this type...

 

[Ageo]

He's a very good example of how people should live their lives (excitment, happiness, gives alot to charity etc...). Read his book

My favourite billionaire by far

As for the groping (if you can even call it that) you guys are just simple jealous

 

[It's Snake Pliskin]

We don't know the full story.
She looks happy and pretty hot I must admit. I can understand other ugly women being jealous and for that they would have negative comments about it. Perhaps the socialists would have negative comments too.

Branson is good for the planet, and there should be more like him. Why can't humans touch each other more and feel real human contact?

 

[Prospector]

Maybe she is his daughter?

Yep, I agree. They look to both be enjoying themselves so I can't see anything wrong with it. As a society, we've become too reluctant to express ourselves.
A bit more laughter and physical contact would be pretty healthy imo.

Maybe you should go back to marketing 101.

A visual image is vastly important in attracting attention.

good t1ts on a pretty girl is the oldest trick in the book
