Three brief quotes from a fabulous interview with Chris Rock that have all sorts of resonances for marketing.

"What would you do in Ferguson that a standard reporter wouldn’t?

"A lot of comedians are very, very similar. So I’ve always said, “Okay, what if the thing that everybody’s talking about is wrong?”"

"Forget being a comedian, just act like a reporter. What’s the question that hasn’t been asked?"

As Caitlin Moran rightly tweeted "Comedy is intelligence speeded up." Read the full interview here.
