The famous 'Crying Indian' PSA that used to run in the '70s to combat littering across America no longer has a place in society, as the new owners of the rights to the ancient ad say they're retiring it for good.
2/25/2023 3:08 PM PTThe old"Crying Indian" commercial that used to play in the '70s -- which was meant to be a PSA against pollution -- is never going to be aired again ... now thanks to its new owner.
As a result, KAB has given up its claim to the PSA at large and transferred ownership to the National Congress of American Indians, which says it's retiring all of the promos and will monitor to make sure it's never played without historical context. In other words, this won't ever be played unironically as a real anti-littering message ... like it once was for years.
