Interviewer: …Their media world is changing like ours.
Matthew Weiner (Creator of Mad Men): The Internet is as much a shakeup to advertising as television was.

And of course the message is super-important. The clients are the ones footing the bill and eventually they’ll revolt until they get a campaign that moves their product.
