Dave Matthews: Pitch man for The Nation

Dave Matthews appears in an advertisement for The Nation in the new issue of the liberal news magazine. The ad shows a picture of him reading the magazine, and it says, "Nobody owns The Nation. That's why so many somebodies read it." Other than a New England ski area using DMB songs in its TV commercials, this is the first time Dave or any other Dave Matthews Band member has officially endorsed a product.

UPDATE: A reader points out in the comments that Boyd Tinsley has appeared in print ads for Jansport and TV commercials for Butterfinger candy bars.

Would you consider Boyd's appearance in Jansport and Butterfinger adverts/commercials as an endorsement?
