June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

I. INTRODUCTION
The Axe product advertising campaign is a global advertising campaign activity. The Axe product

forms of advertising through several media. Presentation forms such as through YouTube CCTV video media
ads, 90-second Youtube video media ads, Unconventional Media (Brand Activation) ads, and 15-second TVC

the object of a winged angel female model figure. The advertising campaign by utilizing the figure of a winged
angel woman model that appears in the advertising media is interesting to be appointed as a research on the
grounds that there are indications of an adaptation of the advertising campaign. In accordance with what has

II. THEORETICEL FRAMEWORK
1. Advertising
A message that wants to be conveyed to need a tool to communicate that called advertising.
Advertising is a persuasive communication using non-personal mass media that can also be interactive to get a
broad target audience to connect with advertisers (Wells, et al., 2007). Some advertising communication
functions informing, persuading, reminding, adding value, and assisting from advertiser's efforts (Shimp, 2000).
That is, advertising is an activity to deliver messages to the target audience. So that messages that can be
communicated according to their functions to the target audience appropriately, then an appropriate ad execution
message is also needed in the media.
2. Global Advertising
Global advertising is the spearhead of global trade for local products or brands. There is an absolute requirement
that must be owned by an advertisement to be a global predicate, which is universal in its appeal. Without this, it
will not succeed in penetrating cultures between nations as global advertising. Not only demands for attraction,
but also conflicts can occur, especially in terms of cultural transformation, and this will be an important issue in
discussing the ideological value of global advertising.
The understanding global advertising is understood to be the same as the understanding advertising
in general, that is, as part of the promotional mix and the promotional mix is a slice of the marketing mix. To
make be easier the expansion of advertising globally, several local advertising beers also try to expand their
work area. The American advertising agency that first tried to expand its work territory abroad was J. Walter
Thompson, who opened a branch in London in 1899. According to historical records of advertising from various
sources, American advertising agencies have traditionally almost always been "leaders" of multinational
advertising agencies. Currently 5 of the 10 largest advertising agencies in the world are advertising agencies
from America (Budiwaspada, 2006)
3. Adaptation of an Advertising Campaign
When adverts try to be present globally sometimes, they have received certain adaptations when present in
several countries. The adaptation is "gradual", from merely translated its verbal language into voiceover and
adding text, to adjusting the creative concept. Voiceover adaptations are applied to ads that only do executing to
replace the sound element without replacing the other constituent elements. Adaptation of text replacement is
applied to an ad that only executes to replace the text element without replacing the other constituent elements.
While the creative adaptation is applied to the ad that executes to replace the concept of ad serving by replacing
some of the elements that make up the ad or replacing all of the other forming elements.

process (Budiwaspada, 1999)
III. METHODS
Qualitative research is a multidisciplinary field of inquiry that is intertwined with cultural studies and
is interpretive (Denzin & Lincoln, 2009). The study uses qualitative data with the study of the theory of ad
adaptation approach as a subject to read the display of advertisements. The research contains the main aspects,
namely the interpretation of advertising adaptation that relies on researchers as the main instrument. The study
intends to analyze the adaptation of Axe ads that aired in 2012 in Indonesia. Research targets and locations are
Axe producers, PT. Unilever Indonesia, Tbk Jakarta, and Axe ad creator, Jakarta Lowe Indonesia advertising
agency.

Literature sources used, in addition to qualitative research methodologies, are libraries that discuss
adaptation, advertising and global advertising. The documents in this study are written data about the
characteristics of the products of Unilever Axe. The main point is the draft of the creative brief and the process
of creative strategies to videos in the visualization of Axe ads by advertising agencies. The interviews were
conducted in the form of in-depth interviews. The questions raised are open-ended, and lead to the depth of
information, and are done in an informal but structured way (Denzin & Lincoln, 2009). This in-depth interview
was conducted to Axe advertisers PT. Unilever Tbk., And the creative agency (creator) Axe advertising agency.
The discussion to answer the formulation of the research problem using interpretation analysis with the ad
adaptation theory approach from Agung E. Budiwaspada.
IV. DISCUSSION
The global Axe product advertising campaign shows a visualization of the characteristics of winged
angel women. Visualization of winged angel women figure comes complete with its attributes. The visuals that
are displayed such as the cast actress, clothes, and gestures are the drawers of his attention. The presentation
featured the figure of a young woman, beautiful, and teasing gestures. The visual presentation of the attributes
of a woman called "angel" uses a clothing in the form of a sleeveless white cloth, dressed with a very low
cleavage model, a mini skirt over the thighs above the knee, wearing large wings like a bird, and the "halo"
effect on the top of the head.
The media used are part of a strategy to give advertising message communication. Digital media
represented by TVC 60 seconds. Illustration of the advertisement displayed tells a story in a city where several
objects fall from the sky. These objects are five winged angel women who slowly stand up and move towards a
goal. With teasing gestures while throwing the “halo” effects on their heads they approach a man. A man who
was about to ride the motorbike turned out to be the goal of five winged angel women for using Axe products.
Print media is represented by poster media. The illustration shown presents a single winged woman
alone holding the "halo” effects as if hiding it. With a smiling face expression with eyes glancing and teasing
gesture facing sideways as if to give a sign that he is in love with the target audience who saw the poster. The
illustration gives the connotation that the target audiences who are entertained to see the poster are those who
use Axe products. The weakness of this media is that it is easy for the target audience to pass through a medium
that is considered a visual clutter because of the lack of allure in advertising (Duncan, 2008).

In the community formed a lifestyle that can not be separated from the cultural elements. Culture is the
intellectual and spiritual development of a group of people towards their artistic activities, so that each cultural
group has its own lifestyle (Williams, 1983). The Indonesian version of the Axe product advertising campaign
displays a visualization of the characteristics of winged angel women who try to appear in accordance with their
culture. The visualization of the winged angel women figure appeared to be complete with white dress attributes
accompanied by large wings.
The visualization of the Indonesian version of the Axe ad campaign cannot be separated from the cast
and accessories used for advertising. The visuals that are displayed such as the cast of Indonesian artists,
clothing, and gestures are the drawers of his attention. Visual presentation of the object of an angel women
figure displays the figure of a young woman, beautiful, and teasing gestures. In the visual presentation of the
attributes using clothes in the form of a white cloth sleeveless, newfangled clothing very low cleavage, mini
skirt over the thighs above the knee, wearing large wings like a bird, and without any “halo” effects on the top
of the head.
The Indonesian version of Axe product advertising campaigns in general uses digital media. The wide
variety of digital media used is part of the strategy to give advertising message communication. Digital media is
represented by Youtube CCTV as the Curiosty Drive stage advertisement. Media ads that are displayed are
digital media advertisements. The presentation of digital media advertisements comes in the form of visual
appearance similar to CCTV display. The visual appearance of the documentation atmosphere in a corner of the
mall revealed a flash of light falling onto the floor and returning to the top to steal attention. Some visitors
seemed to be running close to the scene.

Youtube 90-second media as an advertisement for the stage of Create Awareness & Excitement. Media
ads that are displayed are digital media advertisements. The presentation of digital media advertisements comes
in the form of a story illustrated by a man using Axe products who wants to go to sleep. Four winged angel
woman figures then fell from the roof to tease the man. The story has a setting in a room at night adding a look
with a sensual impression.

(Photo: www.youtube.com / edit scene: Ismandoyo, 2016)
Unconventional media as Engagement & Trial stage advertisements. The media consists of two major
groups, namely conventional and unconventional media. Conventional media are media that have been agreed
upon by the community as personal media (face-to-face, sales promotion, and telephone) and impersonal (print,
broadcast, and electronic or digital). Unconventional media are media that are not commonly used as buildings
that are used as advertising media (Arthur 2009).
Media advertisements that are displayed are new media advertisements outside the room. The
presentation of new media advertisements comes in the form of virtual visual objects that can interact with real
visual objects. The Presentation of advertisements provides the interaction of winged angel model women
figures as virtual visual objects with the target audience as real visual objects. The interaction of the winged
angel model women figures target audience became very interesting to other visitors in the mall. Visual display

experience innovation. Visual innovation is seen in Process Needs, where medium billboard ads are redesigned
from passive visuals to active visuals so they are not considered visual clutter (Ismandoyo, 2016).

/ edit scene: Ismandoyo, 2016)
TVC Media 15 seconds as an Ad Amplification stage. The advertising media that are displayed are conventional
media advertisements. The presentation of conventional media advertisements comes in the form of illustrated
stories that give product promotion information. The story that has a setting in a city shows the excitement with
the fall of the winged angel model women figures from the sky accompanied by the delivery of information on
product promotions offered.
Fig 7. Amplification advertisement cut on TVC media for 15 seconds
(Photo: www.youtube.com / edit scene: Ismandoyo, 2016)
Digital media in the Indonesian version of Axe product advertising campaigns should be enjoyed as a
communication unit of the advertising message. These digital media have their own different ways of displaying
advertising illustrations that aim to become an integrated advertising campaign. This becomes interesting when
understanding an advertising campaign as an advertising stage. Youtube CCTV media as Drive Curiosty stage
advertisements, 90 seconds Youtube media as Create Awareness & Excitement stage advertisements,
Unconventional media as Engagement & Trial stage advertisements, TVC 15 seconds media as Amplification
stage advertisements.
Adaptation is a way of how one advertising campaign is adjusted to another advertising campaign. In
this case, the advertising campaign in Indonesia is adapting its global version of the advertising campaign. The
Indonesian version of the Axe product advertising campaign displays characters, settting, and even Indonesian
characters.
Seeing the appearance of the characters and settting, the ads indirectly become similar to the global ad
version. Culture that created such as attributes, clothing, and myths have indeed been adapted. The appearance
of a similar pattern can be seen from the discussion of the display. The appearance of a similar pattern is due to
almost all elements of the appearance referring to a brief. More and more similar or even the same elements can
7. American Research Journal of Humanities & Social Science (ARJHSS)R) 2020
ARJHSS Journal www.arjhss.com Page | 32
be categorized as creative adaptations. The presence of the development of ideas from the original element
makes the display ad not be too different. Adaptation occurs in situations where developing or modifying a little
is still in accordance with the brief. The more dominant creative process that works according to the brief makes
the results show that creative adaptation has taken place. The mention of creative ad adaptation also appears in
the efforts of creators in the process of developing and modifying the Indonesian version. Based on the above
description, it can be said that the Indonesian version of the advertising campaign has undergone creative
adaptation toward he global version.
The discovery of the concept of the advertising stage is new knowledge. New knowledge is the
development of research that can be done as new knowledge or what is called innovation (Drucker, 2002). The
findings from the concept of the advertising stage are, Drive Curiosty, Create Awareness and Excitement, Drive
Engagement and Trial, and Amplification.
1. Curiosty Drive Advertisements Stage
The Curiosty Drive ad phase must be able to become the center of high attention of the target audience
presented so as to generate interest in the next advertising communication. There was a high focus of attention
on the advertisement because the advertisement presentation was made similar to CCTV record. Display ads
come in black and white. The center of attention in addition to through a visual display similar to CCTV is also
located in a mysterious recording that captures the figure of a flash of light in a mall.
2. Create Awareness and Excitement Advertisements Stage
The focus of attention is then made to attract interest with the appeal of the target audience. Utilizing
the high attractiveness can be seen from the presence of four-winged angel women figures. Four-winged angel
woman figures arrive one by one with a gesture that teases the man.
After finding the attraction of advertising interest, a deeper search for information occurs. Searching for
information on the internet such as details of a winged angel women figure, the cast of the figure's artist, to what
the figure has to do with the advertising message that is to be conveyed.
3. Drive Engagement and Trial Advertisements Stage
Additional information from the internet has been obtained, so then the target audience acts from the
offers given by the product. Getting to know Axe products through advertisements or news related to the figure
of a winged angel women figures makes a direct purchase effort. The next follow up is the effort to make a
product purchase.
4. Amplification Advertisements Stage
The attraction of winged angel women figures as virtual objects turned out to be advertising objects
related to Axe products and made an effort to encourage sharing of shared experiences through sharing. The
target audience feels entertained by the way the phenomenon of the presence of winged angel women to
introduce Axe products.
V. CONCLUSION
The Indonesian version of Axe's product advertising campaign has been stripped based on the issues
raised related to its strategy. The Indonesian version of the Axe product advertising campaign strategy is an
approach related to advertising management activities within a certain period of time from Youtube CCTV
video advertising, 90 second Youtube video advertising, Unconventional Media (Brand Activation) advertising,
and 15 second TVC media advertising. After analysis, it can be summarized into two main points.
First, the Indonesian version of Axe's product advertising campaign has passed the ad adaptation of its global
version. Ads that have received certain adaptations can experience cultural adjustments for the Indonesian
version. The mention of advertising adaptation appears in the efforts of the creators in the process of developing
and modifying the Indonesian version. Based on the above explanation, it can be said that the Indonesian
version of the advertising campaign has been creatively adapted to the global version.
Second, the Indonesian version of Axe's product advertising campaign process has advertising stages divided
into four stages, namely Drive Curiosty stage ads, Create Awareness & Excitement stages, Drive Engagement &
Trial stage ads, and Amplification stage ads. Each stage of advertising has passed the step of making a point of
attention so that the target audience knows a product or brand.
