Fuse Launches Bold New Advertising Campaign

All-Music Network Puts Forth Satirical Creative Encouraging Music Television Fans to “Watch Different”

(New York, July 19, 2004) – Fuse , the nation’s only viewer-driven, all-music network, breaks with marketing tradition in its latest advertising and brand imaging campaign. The campaign, entitled “Watch Different” was developed in partnership with Amalgamated and will first appear on July 19th in outdoor locations around New York City, as well as in national magazines and through an aggressive viral online campaign.

As with the network’s previous award-winning branding campaigns which parodied pop culture icons and references like Sally Struthers, Tammy Faye and political campaigns. Fuse’s print creative features a series of silhouetted models against colorful backdrops, suggesting non-traditional and irreverent ways in which viewers can enjoy the enhanced experience of watching music television on Fuse.
