Portland seeks to mend image amid police uproar, civil unrest with ad campaign: ‘You can be yourself here’
Fox News
Portland purchased a full-page advertisement in the New York Times in an attempt to rebrand itself and attract tourists following a tumultuous year of violent demonstrations in the wake of the death of George Floyd, and the most recent fallout after all 50 members of the police riot squad resigned.
"This is Portland," the full-page ad consisting of just 23 lines of text begins. "You’ve heard a lot about us lately. It’s been awhile since you heard from us." The ad, written in a format resembling a poem, continues, "Some of what you heard about Portland is true. Some is not. What matters most is that we’re true to ourselves."More Related News
