Is this commercial an appropriate use of nysbirds? It is also a commercial for a proposed program that appears to be premised on an insulting stereotype of birders.

I'm currently casting a new reality TV show featuring birders. We are looking for passionate, birders that love to seek out and find unusual birds. If you think a life without birding is not worth living... we want you. If you're a bit eccentric, quirky, nerdy, compulsive and have an over-the-top personality, we want you. We're looking for a group of people that compete against other birders to be the best birder in the country! The more the bizarre the better. The less clean-cut, the better. We want unusual characters that are birding geniuses! If you think you fit the bill (pun intended) Please send us a brief description of your unusual personality and obsession with birding and a photo or a link to a 2 minute video telling us about yourself. We want crazy birders!!! Send an email to [email protected] Thanks! Seth Casting Director Lucky Dog Films www.luckydogfilms.com You must be a subscriber to post to GABO-L.
