Target Women is a recurring segment on Current TV's weekly television show, infoMania. In each episode of Target Women, Sarah Haskins takes a look at the often-ridiculous way the media reaches out to women.
infoMania is a half-hour satirical news show that airs on Current TV. The show puts a comedic spin on the 24-hour chaos and information overload brought about by the constant bombardment of the media. Hosted by Conor Knighton and co-starring Brett Erlich, Sarah Haskins, Ben Hoffman, and Sergio Cilli, the show airs on Thursdays at 10 pm Eastern and Pacific Times and can be found online at http://current.com/infomania.

I feel like every other day I see Brett playing the guitar. He must be the go-to guitarer of Current.

Kind of made it sound like an internet "wall" booty call, which I was about to be mildly offended by, but I'm glad to know you meant it in only the kindest of ways.

Why would it be offensive? What are you free for? Whatever you are told? You do not even know what love is - they have to tell you the mystery on the farm. Out of the office - DNR.

Treasured like constructed are sentences...

It's the symbolism that needs to be epic. I think a lot of people miss that.

I feel compelled to update the world: they just updated the "Like her only gold" commercial. The line now has an added pause, reading: "Like her, only gold is treasured." They must be watching your videos.

Sarah does it again! She always gets it just right. Sappy commercials that are trying to appeal to sentiments are not the way to reach me!

Thank you for this, Sarah. I'm a huge fan.
A friend of mine once found the following De Beers ad in an old magazine:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/86461983@N00/2233136662/
It translates: ""My husband says I am the more pleasant aspect of his career, and that i deserved this sign of gratitude. A diamond. Because I had kept so many small problems from him, and shared the big ones with him. This is why he wanted to find a unique, fascinating way of saying Thankyou. ..."
[sorry. bad translation]

Mz. Haskins gives voice to the rage I feel on a daily basis, but in a disarming funny way that's much less offputting than my method of screaming and vomiting while throwing ninja stars.

I'd love that, but right now I can't adopt because of a legal cloud over my head. Who knew throwing a shoe at the President would be such a big deal?

SumthinFoolish:
When you think about how deep a person goes to get a diamond, maybe the child is already with something of their own and has the money that some diamonds don't get. After all, in a urban world, does anyone care about choice in sex when men of all ages say, it is a women that decides eventually what went deep enough and in 9 months they deliver a bowling ball.

I love you Sarah. Will you marry me? I'd buy you a fancy diamond ring to prove my love, but I know you'd only pawn it.

This reminds me of those commercials where the husband character will be doing something thoughtful for his wife...but then the announcer says something along the lines of, "But wait! You're a man! You don't do such things. You should buy [insert gift item here] to express your feelings instead!"
That's because men can only do manly things and buying something expensive is the only way to express emotion or gratitude. Obviously.

Ahhhh. I was just thinking about this last week and then you make a video! Pah! What are the chances. I'd much prefer a short break full of warm fluffy memories than a piece of jewellery for Christmas though.
Excellent Video! - 4 years ago

This De Beers commercial from 1999 is my favourite (authough I live in the UK (and we spell jewelry differently as "jewellery") the voiceover is different to this one).

I don't think fighting about which set of genitals has it worse fixes anything.
Besides, our society as a whole suffers due to this sort of marketing malarkey.
